Animating Metoidioplasty Anatomy for Urology Nursing Practice

Transgender patients that have undergone metoidioplasty with urethral lengthening may face challenges in healthcare settings that necessitate urinary catheterization. Currently, there are no readily accessible resources that aim to inform nurses about the appearance and treatment of this anatomy. Here, a 3D animation has been created, showing labelled comparative anatomy. Evaluation of this animation will result in valuable feedback of which video elements have facilitated successful learning. Implications for this project call attention to the need for gender-diverse representation within urinary catheterization and healthcare in the United States.
