BURIED PENIS RECONSTRUCTION SURGERY

Buried penis reconstruction restores anatomical visibility and improves function where surrounding tissue affects exposure.

overview

Buried penis is a condition in which the penis becomes partially or completely concealed beneath the surrounding skin or fatty tissue.

This condition can occur in adults and may be associated with factors such as excess suprapubic fat, skin changes, prior surgery or chronic inflammation of the surrounding tissues.

Buried penis can cause significant functional problems including difficulty with urination, hygiene, sexual function and recurrent skin infections.

Surgical reconstruction aims to restore the normal exposure of the penis while addressing the underlying causes of the condition.

Causes of Buried Penis

In adults, buried penis is most commonly related to:

• excess fat in the suprapubic region
• excess or scarred skin surrounding the penis
• chronic skin conditions affecting the genital region
• prior surgical procedures or trauma

These factors can lead to progressive concealment of the penile shaft within surrounding tissues.

GENERAL

Surgical Treatment

Buried penis reconstruction is tailored to the individual patient and may involve several surgical steps.

These may include:

• release of the penile shaft from surrounding tissues
• removal of excess suprapubic fat and tissue (lipectomy)
• removal of diseased or scarred skin
• reconstruction of the penile shaft
• skin grafting when necessary to restore adequate skin coverage

The aim of surgery is to restore normal anatomy while improving both function and hygiene.

Functional Benefits of Surgery

Buried penis reconstruction is primarily performed to restore normal function.

Following reconstruction many patients experience improvement in:

• urinary function
• genital hygiene
• sexual function
• comfort and mobility

Addressing the underlying anatomical issues can significantly improve quality of life.

Recovery

Recovery following buried penis reconstruction depends on the extent of the surgery and the techniques required.

Patients may experience swelling and temporary discomfort during the early healing phase.

Careful wound care and follow-up are important to support healing and optimise the surgical outcome.
