Megaprepuce: A New Surgical Technique with Excellent Cosmetic and Functional Results.

Background: Congenital megaprepuce (CMP) is a malformation consisting of redundant inner foreskin, normal penile shaft, and severe phimosis. The excess inner prepuce pushes the penile shaft deeper causing the appearance of a buried penis. We describe a novel surgical technique using dartos fascial flaps to reconstruct the prepuce giving excellent cosmetic and functional results. Patients and Methods: Penile reconstruction was performed by a single surgeon in 07 cases of CMP between January 2018 and December 2019. In all cases, the described surgical technique was used. Following surgery, cosmetic and functional outcomes were reviewed as well as the incidence of complications. The patients' ages ranged from 15 to 27 months (mean = 19). Mean hospital stay was 9 hours (range = 7-12). Operating time was between 50 and 85 minutes. Results: Postoperative appearance of the penis was satisfactory for all the parents in our group. Swelling of the penile shaft was seen in all of our patients but settled within one week of surgery. Scrotal hematoma was seen in only one of our patients, but that also did not need any intervention and settled spontaneously. During the follow-up period (mean = 14.5 months, range 6-24) no patient underwent revision surgery. In all our patients, the final appearance was of a circumcised penis. The final similarity to a normal circumcised penis was excellent in all of our patients. Correction of penoscrotal transposition was done in all patients achieving an elongated penile shaft and almost invisible postoperative scarring. Conclusion: Our modified surgical procedure to correct CMP is a safe and simple technique, providing good cosmetic results with the appearance of a standard circumcised penis. This also provides a good functional outcome with complication rate quite low. This technique is also easy to reproduce and teach compared with other complex procedures.
