Abstract:

Objective: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of suprapubic liposuction combined with modified Devine surgery in adult patients with concealed penis caused by obesity. Methods: The clinical data of 26 adult patients with buried penis admitted to the Department of Urology of Peking University People' s Hospital and the Department of Surgery of Beijing Eden Hospital from September 2017 to June 2020 were analyzed retrospectively. The average age of the patients was (33.0 ± 5.7) years, the average body mass index (BMI) was (29.0±5.4) kg/m2, and the penis length in the supine position was (2.9±1.3) cm. All the patients were treated with suprapubic liposuction combined with modified Devine operation. The improvement of penis length and complications were statistically analyzed after operation, and the satisfaction of the patients was followed up, 1 = dissatisfied; 2 = basically satisfied; 3 = satisfied; 4 = very satisfied. The measurement data were expressed in (mean±SD), nonparametric Friedman tests and multiplex analysis methods were used for data comparison. Results: The average liposuction volume of the 26 patients was (450.0±90.2) mL. Immediately after operation: the penis length was (7.4±2.1) cm, increased by (4.5±1.6) cm compared with that before operation; three months after operation: the penis length was (5.3±1.8) cm, increased by (2.4±0.7) cm compared with that before operation. There was significant difference in penis length before operation, immediately after operation and three months after operation (P < 0.01). All the patients had no sexual intercourse disorder or dysuria. Postoperative edema occurred in 11 cases (42.3%), ecchymosis in 7 cases (26.9%), poor healing of prepuce wound in 2 cases (7.8%), hematoma in 1 case (3.8%), 5 cases (19.2%) without postoperative complications, and no patient had wound infection. Seventeen patients (65.4%) were very satisfied with the appearance and function of the penis, 6 patients (23.1%) were satisfied, 3 patients (11.5%) were basically satisfied, and no patients were dissatisfied. The average score of all the patients' satisfaction with postoperative penis appearance and function was (3.5±0.7). Conclusion: Suprapubic liposuction combined with modified Devine operation is safe and effective in the treatment of adult-acquired buried penis.
