Abstract

Introduction. Hidden penis, inconspicuous and concealed penis are synonyms for the same entity 2buried penis3 where the penile shaft is hidden below the surface of the prepubic fat to an extent that gives an impression of a short penis, despite corporeal length being normal. Aim. The aim of our work is the reduction of the amount of the suprapubic fat by liposuction to reveal the buried penis and assess the results, patient{u2019}s satisfaction and possible complication. Results. There was a statistically significant increase between the pre and postoperative flaccid and stretched penile length in our patients with p value <0.001 in both. Conclusion. An acquired adult buried penis is a correctable problem. Simple buried penis due to excess fat at the mons pubis should be differentiated from other complex cases that may require combined techniques to achieve good results with minor complications. Suprapubic liposuction is a very safe and successful procedure with minor or no complications if performed meticulously. It could improve self-esteem along with the associated physical and aesthetic concerns.
