Abstract

Penile amputation is an uncommon injury for which immediate surgical replantation is warranted. Microsurgical replantation is the "standard" method for penile replantation. Early replantation yields a high success and low complication rate. We report a case of a 34-year-old male who presented with amputation at the proximal penile shaft which was successfully replanted using microsurgical techniques. Minor skin necrosis was noted post-operatively which was debrided and covered with skin graft. Follow-up at 6 months showed satisfactory cosmetic appearance, normal voiding, return of sensations and erectile function. The level of evidence was V.

Keywords: Microsurgical replantation; penile amputation; pharmacostimulation
