Organ-sparing surgery is recommended in selected penile cancer patients.Glansectomy and Neoglans reconstruction aims to provide curative resection while maximizing functional outcomes and minimizing psychological harm.To show the efficacy and safety of glansectomy and neoglans reconstruction using split-thickness skin graft (STSG) and Acellular Dermal Matrix (ADM). METHODS: Using our prospectively derived database, we identified 25 patients with penile squamous-cell carcinoma involving the glans, who were treated using glansectomy and neoglans reconstruction between March 2015 and December 2021. All the patients underwent total glansectomy and reconstruction of a new glans, of whom 18 (82%) with STSG and 7 with ADM. Deep spongiosal biopsies are taken to exclude invasion as a standard practice. The glans is excised and a neoglans is created using STSG/ADM. These 25 patients represent the subject of our study (mean age 57 years, range 45 to 71 years). RESULTS: 92% of patients (23/25) reported to be fully satisfied with the postoperative aesthetic appearance. The apex of corpora cavernosa was transected in 5 cases due to local invasion. Positive surgical margins were no detected in all the cases. 2 patients (8%) experienced local recurrence during the follow-up period. 4 patients had early partial loss of the graft (STSG 2 vs ADM 2). Two late complications occurred with urethral meatus stricture. CONCLUSIONS: Glansectomy and Neoglans reconstruction using STSG/ADM comprise a safe procedure in terms of oncologic control and complications for patients with penile cancer confined to the glans. Further studies are required to assess functional and sexual outcomes in these patients.The overall satisfaction rate and recovery of the sexual function are acceptable, and it can be considered an ideal procedure to treat superficial penile cancer.
