“…[11,12] As a treatment alternative in cases where microsurgical repair is not feasible following dysepithelization, penis is embedded in the inguinal region so as to maintain vitality of the penis. [12] Another important complication of circumcision is urethrocutaneous fistula (UCF). Despite such a high incidence of circumcision, only a few cases of UCF have been reported.…”

Circumcisions performed by untrained individuals are to be blamed for the complications of circumcision reported in this country. The rate of complications increases during the "circumcision feasts" where multiple circumcisions were performed. This also predisposes to transmission of various diseases, primarily hepatitis B/C and AIDS. Circumcision is a surgical procedure that should be performed by specialists under appropriate sterile circumstances in which the rate of complications would be decreased. The child may be exposed to recurrent psychosocial and surgical trauma when it is performed by incompetent individuals.

“…Considering all the cases reported in Japan, amputation was carried out at the proximal part in majority of the cases; the peripubic area in 7.4%, the proximal part in 88.9%, and the glans in 3.7% . Complete penile glans amputation has been reported in infants as a complication of circumcision . However, in adults, only one case of self‐amputation at the glans has been reported in Japan; the report only included an abstract and did not provide the detailed procedure.…”

CaseSelf‐penile amputation, especially at the glans, has rarely been reported. Most reported cases of self‐amputation were performed at the proximal or peripubic area, and there only one case of self‐amputation at the glans has been reported in Japan. We report two cases of self‐penile amputation at the glans. Case 1: A 31‐year‐old man with no psychiatric disease completely amputated his penis at the glans. He underwent a stump plasty under spinal anesthesia. Case 2: A 46‐year‐old man with schizophrenia amputated his penis at the glans. Surgery and the post‐surgical course were almost the same as described in Case 1.OutcomeBoth patients experienced few functional problems except for slight urinary stream disorders.ConclusionA stump plasty is a good procedure to treat self‐penile amputation at the glans. It is simple, quick, does not require special technical skills, and is not associated with serious complications.

“…At this level, two arteries and a venous anastomosis can be carried out, which leads to an adequate vascular supply to the distal replant. Ince and Gundeslioglu [9] reported that for distal penis amputations in which the repair cannot be achieved by replantation, burying the penis underneath the inguinal area may be an alternative salvage operation to replantation.…”

Penile amputation is a rare catastrophe and a serious complication of circumcision. Reconstruction of the glans penis may be indicated following amputation. Our report discusses a novel technique for reconfiguration of an amputated glans penis 1 year after a complicated circumcision. A 2-year-old male infant presented to us with glans penis amputation that had occurred during circumcision 1 year previously. The parents complained of severe meatal stenosis with disfigurement of the penis. Penis length was 3 cm. Complete penile degloving was performed. The distal part of the remaining penis was prepared by removing fibrous tissue. A buccal mucosal graft was applied to the distal part of the penis associated with meatotomy. The use of a buccal mucosal graft is a successful and simple procedure with acceptable cosmetic and functional results for late reconfiguration of the glans penis after amputation when penile size is suitable.
