    Author: Martina G, Piras P, Paolo Manca G, D'Alpaos M, Scuzzarella S, Andreassi F.
    Journal: Arch Esp Urol; 1996 Nov; 49(9):981-3. PubMed ID: 9133301.
    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVES: A case of traumatic avulsion of penile skin with amputation of the penis and sectioning of the urethra is described. METHODS/RESULTS: Surgical management included embedding the penis without scrotal skin and subsequent reconstruction utilizing scrotal skin. The patient has recovered sexual activity, although sensitivity has been reduced as a consequence of penile amputation. Six months postoperatively, the patient has reported orgasm during intercourse. CONCLUSIONS: The surgical technique of embedding the penis is safe and preserves elasticity for subsequent reconstruction of the urethral meatus.
