ABSTRACT: A phenomenon known as
trapped penis has numerous origins, including injudicious circumcision.
Materials and Methods: Surgery for trapped penis with glanular amputation was
performed for 5 children. The surgical policy in these cases included complete
penile degloving, excising the scarring due to circumcission, fixing the penile
skin at the penopubic and penoscrotal angles and reconstructing the penile skin
with full thickness skin graft. Results: Improvement was noted in all cases.
Conclusion: Surgery for hidden penis using full thickness skin graft achieves
very satisfactory aesthetic and functional improvement.
