Penile
Reconstruction
Penile reconstruction is re-building
of the glans penis, part of the penile shaft or a whole new penis
(new-phalloplasty) in cases of injury and loss of the penis, or in
case of congenital inborn abnormalities where the penis is very
small (micropenis).
If lost, the glans can be re-built by
transferring and sculpturing a muscle of the abdominal muscles as a
glans around the tip of the penis, while still connected to it s
nourishing blood vessels to keep it alive. This technique has been
invented by Dr.Shaeer:
Construction Of Neo-Glans Penis: A
New Sculpturing Technique From Rectus Abdominis Myo-Fascial Flap
O.K.Z. Shaeer and A. El Sebaie
J Sex Med 2005; 2: 259–265
If part of the shaft is lost, it can
be rebuilt using a special technique that frees the reserve penis
that is normally attached to the bony pelvis. You can read the
details here.
If the whole penis is lost or is
originally too small for reconstruction, a new penis can be
constructed by transferring part of the skin on the forearm to the
pubic area and fashioning it as a penis, or by sculpturing a penis
off the abdominal skin. rigidity of this skin tube is obtained by
inserting a prosthesis. Although
these skin tubes do not exactly match the normal penis, they are
very close to it in terms of appearance and rigidity.
