    Objective: This paper discusses the various surgical techniques and outcomes associated with management of buried penis syndrome. Methods: Presented is the case of a 49-year-old man with morbid obesity, leading to massive panniculus and buried penis. We review our technique for reconstruction of the buried penis and treatment of the overlying large panniculus. Literature search was conducted to review current techniques in correcting buried penis syndrome. Results: The patient underwent a successful panniculectomy with removal of all excess skin and tissue. Thoughtful planning and coordination between plastic surgery and urology were paramount to externalize the penis for an excellent functional and cosmetic result. Conclusions: Management of a buried, hidden penis is complex and difficult. Patients are often obese and have poor hygiene due to the inability to cleanse areas that are entrapped by excessive fat. Following removal of the overhanging panniculus, satisfactory reconstruction of a hidden penis is possible when proper care is taken to adhere the base of the penis to the pubis. Split-thickness skin grafts are often necessary but depend on the viability of the penile skin and whether it is restricting penile length. Complications with wound dehiscence and infection are not uncommon; however, patients generally recover well, are satisfied with results, and are reported to have fully regained urinary and sexual functions following surgical correction of the buried penis.

    Floppy glans syndrome (FGS) is a potential complication of penile prosthesis placement in patients with erectile dysfunction. FGS affects a very small proportion of these patients, and it can manifest in a ventral, dorsal, or lateral droop of a hypermobile glans, which can cause affected patients to complain of painful, unsatisfying, or otherwise difficult attempts at sexual intercourse. Incorrect cylinder sizing can even result in extreme conditions such as flail penis or S-shaped deformity.
    The aim of this review is to outline the types, causes, and management options for FGS.
    This review was conducted after a thorough literature search in addition to experience managing FGS at the authors\' institution.
    Clarification of the nomenclature for FGS, supersonic transporter deformity, flail penis, and crossover to define, diagnose, and treat these conditions.
    In many cases of FGS, poor intraoperative prosthetic cylinder positioning and sizing can lead to insufficient compression of the deep dorsal and circumflex veins between the Buck fascia and the corpora cavernosa, even when cylinders are maximally inflated. When the adjacent tissue does not adequately restrict blood flow through these vessels, then glanular tumescence becomes increasingly difficult to achieve, particularly in patients with severe erectile dysfunction who have poor glanular blood flow at baseline. FGS also can be a result of poor underlying glanular structural support. Thus, droop is possible even when cylinders have an appropriate size and position. Treatment options range from medical management to surgical correction. Distal penoplasty and glanulopexy have been described as effective methods of correcting the FGS deformity and avoiding the more invasive option of prosthetic cylinder replacement. These options are especially valuable in patients who undergo adequate cylinder sizing intraoperatively.
    FGS is not monolithic, and careful diagnosis is essential to determining the appropriate treatment course.

    OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effect of modified penoplasty in the management of concealed penis.
    METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed 96 consecutive patients with concealed penis, which had been surgically corrected between July 2013 and July 2015. All patients underwent modified Shiraki phalloplasty. All patients were scheduled for regular follow-up at 1, 3, and 6 months after the surgery. Data on the patients\' age, operative time, postoperative complications, and parents\' satisfaction grade were collected and analyzed.
    RESULTS: The mean follow-up period was 17.4 months (range 7-31 months). The mean operative time was 63.2 ± 8.7 min. The mean perpendicular penile length was 1.89 ± 0.77 cm preoperatively and 4.42 ± 0.87 cm postoperatively, with an improved mean length of 2.5 ± 0.68 cm in the flaccid state postoperatively (p < 0.05). The patients\' satisfaction grades after the surgery were improved significantly (p < 0.05). Fifty-two patients had penile lymphedema postoperatively; however, it disappeared spontaneously within 3 months. Additionally, postoperative wound infection occurred in two patients. There were no complications such as flap necrosis, penile shaft contracture, voiding difficulty, and erection difficulties.
    CONCLUSIONS: The modified Shiraki phalloplasty for concealed penis can achieve maximum utilization of prepuce to assure coverage of the exposed penile shaft. It has fewer complications, achieving marked asthetics, and functional improvement. It is a relatively ideal means for treating concealed penis.

    OBJECTIVE: Congenital megaprepuce is a specific form of buried penis. Children affected by this malformation usually suffer from a subjective difficulty in voiding which is the main indication for early surgical correction. The aim of this study was to report a single center\'s 12-year experience in the treatment of megaprepuce in children, describing the surgical procedure we used to treat it and the results.
    METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed the charts of all children who underwent congenital megaprepuce repair between January 1999 and August 2011 in our institution. Fifty-two children were operated during the study period. Our single surgical technique, not an original one, consists of fixing the penile shaft at the base of the penis, and widely reducing the inner prepuce.
    RESULTS: Four children (8%) underwent revision surgery but according to our criteria a very good result was observed in only 23 patients, and a less good but still acceptable result in 25 patients.
    CONCLUSIONS: Our 12-year experience in the surgical treatment of congenital megaprepuce demonstrated satisfying results from a safe and simple surgical technique, but to achieve the optimum result remains difficult.
