Summary

Penile agenesis treatment aims for early female gender assignment and perineal reconstruction. A novel posterior sagittal approach allows early total reconstruction, avoiding the need for colostomy or vesicostomy.

Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Pediatric Surgery
  • Gender Affirming Care

Background:

  • Penile agenesis necessitates early intervention for gender assignment and reconstructive surgery.
  • Traditional surgical methods often involve multiple procedures, including vesicostomy and colostomy, for urinary and fecal diversion.

Observation:

  • This case report details a novel surgical technique for penile agenesis.
  • The reconstruction was performed using a posterior sagittal approach.

Findings:

  • The posterior sagittal approach enabled early total feminizing reconstruction of the perineum.
  • This method successfully avoided the need for urinary (vesicostomy) and fecal (colostomy) diversion.

Implications:

  • This technique offers a potentially less invasive and more efficient approach to managing penile agenesis.
  • It may reduce the number of surgical interventions and improve outcomes for affected individuals.
  • Further research is warranted to validate the long-term efficacy and applicability of this approach.
