Here three experts demonstrate the state of the art surgeries to either preserve most of the penis for local disease or a complete reconstruction for more advanced tumors. The techniques of glans resurfacing and glansectomy for different low stage diseases are presented and total phallic construction via phalloplasty following a more extensive amputation.
All 3 operations demonstrate the principles of genital reconstruction with grafts and flaps to therefore generate a healthy discussion, not only on cancer management, but also on wider general reconstructive techniques.
Highly-regarded experts of the EAU Section of Genitourinary Reconstructive Surgeons (ESGURS) and EAU Section of Andrological Urology (ESAU) will share vital research and valuable insights with you in detail.
