“Foundations II 2022 Group [21] proposed edits” type two equal signs =Adults and children may need scrotoplasty= The most common reason for a child to need scrotoplasty is to treat a condition called buried penis. Buried penis is often present at birth (a birth defect) [[User:Kieu-My Huynh|Kieu-My Huynh]] ([[User talk:Kieu-My Huynh|talk]]) 21:41, 25 July 2022 (UTC)07-25-2022[[User:Kieu-My Huynh|Kieu-My Huynh]] ([[User talk:Kieu-My Huynh|talk]]) 21:41, 25 July 2022 (UTC)<ref>Li, Yuan et al. “A Modified Scrotoplasty for Treating Severe Penoscrotal Webbing in Children.” Frontiers in pediatrics vol. 8 551. 11 Sep. 2020, doi:10.3389/fped.2020.00551/ref>

Conditions in need of scrotoplasty:

  • Buried penis is a condition when the penis of a young infant is attached to their scrotum with an excess of skin. Scrotoplasty can be done to cut away extra skin and reshape their scrotum.
  • Penoscrotal webbing is a condition when the skin connecting the penis to the scrotum extends along the underside of the penis shaft like a web. This condition is easily confused with buried penis. Scrotoplasty procedure involves in making incision in the fuse part between the penis and scrotum then reconstruct the scrotum.[1]
  • Fournier's gangrene, trauma and burn can cause damage to scrotal skin. Scrotoplasty in these conditions is to remove necrotic skin and reconstruct the scrotum to restore its function.[2]
  • Some trans men and intersex or non-binary people who were assigned female at birth may choose to have this surgery to create a scrotum from existing tissue, as part of their Female-To-Male transition[3].
  • There are many reasons that can cause scrotal sagging such as natural aging, varicocele, hydrocele, and cancer patients. Scrotoplasty, in particular scrotal lift, is an option to remove excess loose scrotal skin, tighten, and reduce the size of the scrotum in order to reduce discomfort and improve appearance.
