Cheng's method for reconstruction of a functionally sensitive penis.

This article introduces a new surgical method for one-stage reconstruction of the penis. It is applied to the reconstruction of the microphallus as well as to traumatic cases with the residual stump of the amputated penis not less than 3 cm long. By transferring the original glans or the residual penile stump to the anterior portion of the newly reconstructed penile body with microsurgical techniques, we have thus rebuilt a penis with more satisfactory results in both appearance and erotic sensation. Seven patients are reported here who were operated on by this method and who have been followed up for 18 months to 10 years. The good results achieved and the method's advantages over other methods are demonstrated and discussed.

Analysis of 136 cases of reconstructed penis using various methods.

Our experience in reconstructive surgery of the penis in 136 cases is reported. The postoperative complication rate was 13.24 percent. Five methods were used: the radial forearm free flap, the superficial inferior epigastric artery flap, the superficial circumflex iliac artery flap, the anterolateral thigh flap, and the combined cutaneous flap. The choice of the method had to be made depending on the patient's condition and prediction of the operative results. The penis not only should have a good appearance with normal size but also should have good sensation and function. The keys to success of this operation are considered to be correct preoperative planning, careful manipulation, and excellent anastomoses.

Diphallus in an adult: microsurgical treatment--case report.

A case of true, complete diphallus in an adult, associated with multiple malformations, is presented. The left urethra was perineal hypospadic; the right posterior urethra was small in caliber; and the right testis and spermatic cord were absent. The chordee was released; the right penis was resected and transferred to elongate the left one; and the urethra was reconstructed with a radial forearm free flap. Follow-up of more than 6 years shows that the patient has a good functional and cosmetic result.

The application of free twin flaps in one-stage treatment of severe hand deformity.

Twin flaps from the plantar non-weight-bearing region and lower medial leg have been designed and performed in 7 patients, 1 of whom had bilateral twin flaps. The twin flaps possess different textures of tissues that are particularly suitable for repair of hand deformity involving both the palm and the dorsum. Technical points of raising twin flaps are detailed and their indications discussed.
