Abstract

Currently, augmentative phalloplasty is a highly controversial issue. The lack of guidelines for augmentative phalloplasty and the deficiency of evidence-based studies fuel this controversy. Penile enlargement surgery is mainly divided into penile lengthening and penile girth enhancement (PGE). Penile lengthening includes abdomino/pubopelvic liposuction, suspensory ligament dissection, and skin flap construction [1]. Penile girth enhancement uses graft procedures or injection of materials such as autologous fat, silicon, or hyaluronic acid gel [2].
