Aphallia: An Adult Presentation
Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Medical Case Reports - Year 2014, Vol 2, Issue 8
Abstract
Aphallia or Penile agenesis is a rare urogenital anomaly with an estimated incidence of 1 in 30 million. We report a case of aphallia in a male, who had two well-developed testicles, but lacked a penis. An earlier goal of treatment for such presentations was female gender reassignment and feminizing reconstruction of perineum, more recent goal being phalloplasty. Keywords: Aphallia, Penile agenesis, micropenis
