Abstract:
Webbed penis without chordee or hypospadias is uncommon malformation of the genital integument which is repaired easily once the condition is recognized. Examination reveals a web of skin extending between the median scrotal raphe and the ventral aspect of penis. The web was incised transversely and sutured vertically in two patients. In other three patients the redundant skin was excised and sutured with interrupted 4-0 vicryl. We report five cases of webbed penis which are good functional and cosmetic results.
