Penile reconstruction
View through CrossRef
Although the last decades have been characterized by the continuous evolution of reconstructive surgery and in particular of free tissue transfer techniques, the repair and reconstruction of the penis remains anatomically, functionally, and aesthetically a great challenge. This is due to the unique architecture of the penis and to the absence in the whole human body of an alternative tissue that could adequately replace the corpora cavernosa in terms of colour, texture, structure, and ultimately, function. The aim of this chapter is to describe the state of the art in penile reconstructive surgery with an emphasis on the cosmetic and functional outcome.
