Description
In this video, William Kuzon, MD, demonstrates an approach for treating a condition known as “Buried” or “Hidden Penis.” In this instance, a 53-year-old patient had previously had difficulty with phimosis, had undergone a circumcision at a different institution and subsequently developed recurrent cicatrix difficulties with urination, hygiene and sexual function. Dr. Kuzon notes that while each patient’s treatment is personalized depending on the extent of the deformity, his general approach, demonstrated in this video, is to deglove the penile shaft, retrieve the corpora, and in combination with a superpubic lipectomy, anchor the corpora in a projected position with deep dermal sutures to the corpus cavernosum. This often requires skin grafting to the penile shaft.
