Abstract
Gender-affirming surgery (GAS) is increasingly being performed. GAS is tailored to the patient leading to a diverse spectrum of radiologic post-operative findings. Radiologists who are unfamiliar with expected anatomic alterations after GAS may misdiagnose important complications leading to adverse patient outcomes. This collaborative multi-institutional review aims to: Describe relevant embryology and native anatomy. Describe relevant Gender-Affirming Surgery (GAS) techniques and expected neo-anatomy with associated complications, including common terminology. Review expected imaging appearance of neo-anatomy/postoperative findings. Review multi-modality [ultrasound, plain film, retrograde urethrogram, computed tomography] emergent imaging findings. Understand unique patient evaluation and imaging protocol considerations in the GAS population. Discuss pearls and pitfalls of imaging in the acute post-GAS setting.
