ABSTRACT
Objective: To investigate the effectiveness of concealed penis correction surgery based on the principle of midline symmetry. Methods: Between January 2016 and September 2018, 18 children with concealed penis were treated with correction surgery based on the principle of midline symmetry. All children were 3-12 years old, with an average age of 8.3 years. Physical examination showed that the penis was short; the penis body could not be exposed or be exposed too limited; the corpus cavernosum developed well. The pressure dressing was removed at 3 days after operation and the urethral tube was removed. The color of the glans, the swelling and congestion of penis and scrotum, and the blood supple of the prepuce flap were observed. Results: The operation time ranged from 47 to 54 minutes, with an average of 50 minutes. All children were followed up 3 months after operation. There was no hemorrhage and necrosis of the glans and no infection or ischemic necrosis of the flap. All patients had different degree of prepuce edema at 3 days after operation, 5 patients still had prepuce edema at 2 weeks, and the prepuce edema in all patients subsided at 3 months. All penises were exposed well after midline symmetric anastomosis with no bulky prepuce and scrotum. Conclusion: The correction surgery based on the principle of midline symmetry can be used to correct the appearance of the concealed penis effectively.
ABSTRACT
Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of pedicled skin flap of foreskin for phalloplasty and Sugita surgical method in the treatment of complete concealed penis. Methods: The clinical data of 46 children with complete concealed penis between January 2016 and January 2018 were analyzed retrospectively. Among which, 25 cases were treated with pedicled skin flap of foreskin for phalloplasty (group A) and 21 cases were treated with Sugita surgical method (group B) with an average age of 4.7 years (range, 2 years and 8 months to 11 years). At 3 months after operation, the concealed penis recovery was scored from three aspects of postoperative penis length (the difference of the penis length between at 3 months after operation and before operation), penis appearance, and skin appearance (the total score was 10). And the parents evaluation of satisfaction degree of penis exposure, penis appearance, and foreskin appearance after surgical correction was collected. Results: Eighteen cases (72.0%) in group A and 15 cases (71.4%) in group B were followed up with an average of 13 months (range, 3-36 months). The incisions healed well in both groups, and there was no flap dehiscence, infection, necrosis, and penile erectile dysfunction. The penile length of the two groups increased significantly at 3 months after operation ( P0.05). No penile retraction occurred in the two groups. And there was no significant difference between the two groups in penis appearance score, but the penis appearance score, skin appearance score, and total score of group A were significantly better than those of group B ( P<0.05). At 3 months after operation, the satisfaction rate of penis exposure in group A and group B was 88.9% and 80.0%, respectively, with no significant difference ( χ2=0.50, P=0.48); the satisfaction rate of penis appearance was 72.2% and 53.3%, and the satisfaction rate of foreskin appearance was 94.4% and 53.3%, respectively, and the differences were significant ( χ2=5.13, P=0.03; χ2=7.53, P=0.01). Conclusion: Both surgical methods are suitable for correction of complete concealed penis, and the penile length gets a satisfactory recovery. However, the lymphedema of the prepuce after Sugita surgical method is serious, which can easily lead to poor appearance of the penis after operation. In general, the effectiveness of pedicled skin flap of foreskin for phalloplasty is better than that of the Sugita surgical method.
ABSTRACT
Objective@#To investigate the corrective effect of modified Brisson technique to treat concealed penis in children.@*Methods@#From July 2015 to July 2017, 32 patients(3-10 years old, mean 7.2 years old )with concealed penis were treated with the modified Brisson technique in the Children′s Hospital of Zhengzhou University.

No infection and dehiscence were noticed after discharge. All the children were followed up for 6 months to 1 year, and the results were satisfactory. Review showed that the penile body was similar to the appearance after circumcision, with obvious extension exposure, normal exposure of penile scrotal Angle and penile pubic Angle, and no obvious retraction. The internal plate of the prepuce in 5 cases was slightly edema, and edema dissolved within 2 months.@*Conclusions@#Modified Brisson is a better method to treat concealed penis in children, which can correct the pathological structure and retain the integrity of penile skin to the greatest extent.
ABSTRACT
Objective: To discuss the effectiveness of modified Brisson surgery in treatment of the severe and obviously obese concealed penis. Methods: A clinical data of 96 boys with severe concealed penis, of 53 cases combined with obviously obese, who were treated by modified Brisson surgery between January 2014 and August 2016, was retrospectively analysed. The children ranged in age from 1 year to 11 years and 9 months, with an average of 5 years and 3 months. The median longitudinal incision of the penis scrotum was used instead of the wedge-shaped skin incision at the junction of the penis and scrotum, which could completely expose the surgical field; fully release and removal of the abnormal meat membrane and fascia around the penis were performed; the propulsion and rotating flaps match the inner sheath of the foreskin was used to completely remove skin stenosis. Postoperative effectiveness was evaluated by Boemers standard. Results: All the incisions healed by first intention and no infection or necrosis of the foreskin flap occurred. Ninety-three cases were discharged from hospital after operation and followed up 1 year to 3 years and 6 months, with an average of 2 years and 4 months. Scrotal hematoma occurred in 2 cases within 48 hours, penile skin edema occurred in 5 cases, and scar hyperplasia in the penis scrotal corner incision occurred in 1 case at 1 month after operation. Postoperative exposure of the penis was good in 90 cases; there was no retraction of the penis in the upright position and sitting position; the family members were satisfied with the appearance of the penis. The penis were partially retracted in 3 cases, that affected the appearance of the penis during the sitting position. Conclusion: The modified Brisson surgery is one of the most effective methods to treat the severe and obviously obese concealed penis, with satisfactory effectiveness and less complication.

ABSTRACT
Objective To compare the effect of Devine surgery with different fixed positions in the treatment of concealed penis.Methods According to the different fixed positions,45 patients with concealed penis in our hospital from January 2010 to February 2015 were divided into two groups:20 patients were treated with the method that fixing the scapus penis to dermis of the penis' root (group A);the other 25 patients were treated with the method that fixing the scapus penis to pectineal fascia (group B).The surgical success rate,the penile length,and the edema time after surgery between two groups were compared.Results There was no significant difference in surgical success rate and edema time between two groups (P ＞ 0.05).But the penile length of group B was longer than that of group A after surgery (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion In the treatment of concealed penis with Devine surgery,comparing to the method which fixing scapus penis to dermis of penis'root,the method which fixing scapus penis to fascia pectinea is much better in penile length and penile appearance.
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the outcomes of penoplasty with penile frenulum lengthening for concealed penis in children.Methods From March 2014 to March 2016,a total of 233 patients with concealed penis who enderwent penoplasty with penile frenulum lengthening were enrolled.The everage age at surgery was 3.7 years (1 year and seven months-12 years).There were 73 cases with obvious small urinary stream,dysuria,or prepuce dilatation when urinating;41 cases with the history of recurrent infections of prepuces;and 9 cases with the history of urinary tract infections.During operation,incise the back side center of the outer plate of the prepuce and fully release the ring-type funicular tissue between the inner and outer plates of the prepuce to make the inner plate fully swell out.After the prepuce is upturned,cut the penile frenulum at the coronary sulcus.Make a V-shaped cut on the left and right sides of the far end of the outer plate cut of the prepuce from the cut of the penile frenulum.Lengthen penile frenulum after the prepuce is pressed off.Cover the dorsal side of the penis with the inner plate of the prepuce and cover its ventral side with its outer plate.Results Mean surgical time for patients was 38 min (30-55 min).All operations were completed successfully and the post-operation follow-up lasts 3 months to 2 years.For all cases,the appearance of the penis is improved.The penis stretches out,the balanus is exposed,the prepuce has no obvious swelling and the scrotum angle of the penis is obvious.No phimosis relapses and there is no obvious scar hyperplasia.Conclusions This surgical procedure is an effective treatment choice for concealed penis.It provides a good cosmetic result.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the corrective effect of modified Brisson technique to treat concealed penis in children.Methods From July 2014 to July 2016,selected 12 patients (3-10 years old,mean 7.2 years old) with concealed penis were surgically treated with the modified Brisson technique in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University.Their clinical manifestations included the penis buried below the surface of prepubic skin which can be palpated and visualized through pushing the skin around the penis to the pubis and the short foreskin which was not attached to the penile corpus cavernosum.Patients with other conditions such as obesity and penial agenesis that caused buried penis were excluded from the study.The modified Brisson technique consisted of 4 steps.Ventral incision was used to gradually slit the narrow ring of the prepuce and to expose the glans followed by circumfe-rential inner foreskin incision made below the coronary sulcus of penis then the foreskin stripping released the corpus cavernosum.Finally the skin coverage was accomplished by posthioplasty.The operation time,blood loss,complications,postoperative treatments and followed-ups were retrospectively analyzed.Results For all the 12 patients,the operations were successful,lasting 40 to 60 minutes.The bleeding was about 5 to 10 mL and there was no operation-related complications like bleeding and infection of incision.Satisfactory cosmetic outcomes were obtained without retraction and the scars were similar to those of circumcision.All patients had penile lymphedema postoperatively which disappeared within 6 months after operation.Follow-up ranged from 6 months to 1 year,and there were no complications like skin necrosis and contracture or voiding difficulty.Conclusions The modified Brisson technique for concealed penis repair is technically easy and safe.In addition,it provides a good cosmetic appearance,functional outcomes and excellent postoperative satisfaction grades.

ABSTRACT
Objective To compare the effects of different surgical techniques for treatment of concealed penis. Methods A retrospective review of 219 patients underwent surgical correction of concealed penis between 1986 and 2007 was performed. The mean age was (10.3±2.4) years(3-15 years). The penile length was (1.9±0. 5)cm(0. 5-3. 0 cm)before operation. Ninty-three patients were the severe degree of concealed penis. The others were the moderate degree. All patients under-went operation with different techniques, including Johnston's technique in 34, Devine's technique in 42, modified Devinds technique in 125 and Brisson's technique in 18. The increased length of penile af-ter operation was compared among the 4 groups with different surgical techniques by statistical meth-od. Results The postoperative increased length of penile in Johnston's technique, Devine's tech-nique, modified Devine's technique and Brisson's technique was (1.8 ± 0. 4) cm, (2. 0 ± 0. 5) cm, (2.1±0.4)cm and (2.3±0.4)cm respectively. The difference was significant by ANOVA test (F=13.1,P<0. 001). Devines technique, modified DevineSs technique and Brisson's technique were better than Johnston's technique considering the increased length of penile. The complication of severe penile lymphedema of 4 groups developed in 8, 5, 6 and 2 patients respectively. Conclusion Modified De-vine's technique has the satisfactory increasing of penile length for treatment of concealed penis and less complication rate after operation.
ABSTRACT
PURPOSE: Management of concealed penis continues to evolve, with several manuscripts having been published over the last several decades. Each describes a novel surgical approach, but little has been written concerning long-term results. We conducted a parental survey to assess long-term satisfaction with the surgical correction of concealed penis. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We reviewed 31 medical records of patients treated for concealed penis between 2000 and 2005. The parental survey was performed via telephone interview. The mean follow-up duration was 26.3 months(range 14 to 84 months). The questionnaire addressed the appearance and accessibility of the penis, hygiene care, severity of concealment, negative concerns about the appearance of the penis, and parent satisfaction. Parental satisfaction was also analyzed according to age, phimosis, method of correction, and body mass index(BMI). RESULTS: The mean patient age was 7.3+/-6.5 years(range 14 month to 14 years). Before surgery, 67.7% of parents complained of difficulty with hygiene care, 80.6% complained of a completely hidden penis, and 83.3% complained of negative feelings about the appearance of the penis. However, most of these complaints resolved after surgical correction. On the telephone interview, 93.5% of parents said there was improvement in the accessibility of the penis, 80.6% said there was improvement in the length of the penis, and 87.1% said they would recommend the surgery to another boy with the same problem. There were no significant differences in parental satisfaction with respect to age, phimosis, method of correction, or BMI. CONCLUSIONS: Our data demonstrate that most parents were satisfied with the surgical correction of concealed penis, regardless of patient age, phimosis, surgical method, or BMI.
