Abstract:
Total necrosis of the penis is a very serious complication of circumcision with an electrical scalpel. Reconstruction of the penis was achieved by mobilization of the corpora cavernosa and detachment from the ischiopubic rami, which was then placed in a scrotal tunnel to avoid recurrent adhesion to ischiopubic rami and to ensure skin cover of the penis. After a follow-up of 6 months, this child urinated with a good stream and presented spontaneous erections.
