Genital Cosmetic Procedures in Urology

In recent years, genital cosmetic procedures have been increasing in the field of Andrology.The most common of these procedures are penis lengthening and girth enhancement.In this review, we have examined the studies conducted on penile reconstruction surgeries, including the details of surgical techniques as well as complications and methodological shortcomings with an emphasis on possible bias that might enormously affect the published literature.Although we have observed that these procedures have become increasingly popular in recent years due to the lack of sufficient studies on these surgeries, we believe that caution should be exercised and patient selection should be meticulous.

Abstract

In recent years, genital cosmetic procedures have been increasing in the field of Andrology.The most common of these procedures are penis lengthening and girth enhancement.In this review, we have examined the studies conducted on penile reconstruction surgeries, including the details of surgical techniques as well as complications and methodological shortcomings with an emphasis on possible bias that might enormously affect the published literature.Although we have observed that these procedures have become increasingly popular in recent years due to the lack of sufficient studies on these surgeries, we believe that caution should be exercised and patient selection should be meticulous.
