RESUMEN
Objective@#To evaluate the clinical effect of embedding sutures of single inner- and outer-prepuce flap in the treatment of concealed penis.@*METHODS@#This retrospective analysis included 37 cases of concealed penis treated by embedding sutures of single inner- and outer-prepuce flap between July 2011 and May 2015. Catheters were pulled out from the patients within 24 hours and the dressing removed about 1 week after surgery. All the patients were followed up for 12－24 months postoperatively for evaluation of the long-term outcomes of surgery.@*RESULTS@#One-stage wound healing was achieved in all the patients. No foreskin flap necrosis, inflammation, edema, voiding dysfunction, or painful erection was found during the follow-up. The penises were extended by 2－4 cm. No complications were observed axcept 8 cases of mild prepuce edema, which all subsided with 6 months postoperatively.@*CONCLUSIONS@#Embedding sutures of single inner- and outer-prepuce flap, with the advantages of simple operation, rapid recovery and few complications, is a desirable surgical option for the treatment of concealed penis.
