Abstract:
A man's self-esteem can be influenced by his external genitalia. If a man perceives his penis as inadequate size, whether real or imagined, such feelings invade his sexual activities. Most patients seek increased thickness and length to improve appearance during intercourse. Many men want to enlarge their penes despite of normal function or above average size. Dermal fat graft is extracted from a patient and penile augmentation with it is highly satisfactory since the amount of dermal fat graft absorption to the body itself is pretty low and rare cases of complication, and its natural appearance of penis without physical comfort. The most common complications after dermal grafting are penile skin edema and erythema. Sebaceous glands usually disappear within 2 weeks and hair follicles generally within 2 months. We report our experience with the evaluation and management of patient who present with uncommon penile cutaneous fistula after penile augmentation with dermal fat grafting.
