Subtotal amputation for carcinoma of the penis with reconstruction of penile stump.

Partial and total amputation are well-accepted procedures for the surgical treatment of carcinoma of the penis. In certain cases after adequate amputation the residual penile stump is too small from the penoscrotal junction to offer useful function, and a total amputation is therefore usually performed. In such cases a subtotal amputation with reconstruction of the penile stump avoids a perineal urethrostomy and permits micturition in the erect posture.
