Abstract

Subcutaneous injection of liquid fatty materials to enhance penile girth induce sclerosing lipogranuloma of the penis. In spite of its well known severe consequences there has been a persistent use of this practice in non-medical circumstances. The aim of this paper is to present our observations with staged penile skin reconstruction for sclerosing lipogranuloma and to evaluate postoperative complications in a retrospective manner. Between 2008 and 2020, 17 patients underwent surgery to treat sclerosing lipogranuloma of the penis by staged penile skin reconstruction at our department. Complete exscision of the involved tissue was performed, then the denuded penile shaft was inserted into a subcutaneous channel on the anterior side of the scrotum during the first stage. The second stage of reconstruction consisted of releasing the penile shaft from the scrotum. The second stage was performed merely on 9 in 17 patients. According to the Clavien-Dindo classification system, 3 grade I and 1 grade I complications occurred in the postoperative period after the first and second stage, respectively. Grade II-V complications were not observed. 7 of 9 patients who underwent both stages were satisfied with the final result, 2 patients had minor correction surgery 6 months and 9 years following the second stage. 1 of 8 patients who underwent only the first stage had minor correction surgery 4 months following the operation. In case of sclerosing lipogranuloma of the penis, excision of the affected tissue and reconstruction of the penile skin are indicated. Advantages of using scrotal skin flaps are that colour and elasticity of the scrotal skin are similar to penile skin, erogenous sensation of the scrotal flap remains intact. Applying staged penile skin reconstruction with scrotal skin flap has the advantage of few postoperative complications and it is easy to perform. Orv Hetil. 2021; 162(35): 1413-1417.

A hímvessző bőrének helyreállítása szklerotizáló lipogranuloma okozta deformitás miatt Murányi Mihály dr. ■ Farkas Antal dr. ■ Kiss Zoltán dr. A hímvessző bőrének helyreállítása szklerotizáló lipogranuloma okozta deformitás miatt Murányi Mihály dr. Hazánkban a szklerotizáló lipogranuloma okozta hímvessző-deformitások kezelésének legelterjedtebb módszere a két ülésben végzett bőrpótlás. Célkitűzés: Tanulmányunkban a szklerotizáló lipogranuloma okozta deformitások miatti – két ülésben végzett – hímvesszőbőr-helyreállítással szerzett tapasztalatainkról, a műtét után kialakuló szövődményekről számolunk be retro­ spektív adatgyűjtés alapján. A második ülés során a herezacskó bőre alá ültetett hímvesszőt felszabadítottuk. Azon 9 beteg közül, akik mindkét ülésen átestek, 7 beteg elégedett volt a beavatkozás eredményével, 2 beteg korrekciós műtéten esett át fél és 9 évvel a második ülés után. A 8 beteg közül, akik csak ez első ülést vállalták, egy korrekciós műtét történt 4 hónappal a műtét után.
