Correction of severe penile curves with tunica albuginea autografts. Academic Article uri icon

Overview

abstract

  • Nesbit's technique of excising ellipses of the tunica albuginea has been effective in correcting penile curvatures. When this procedure is used for severe angulations, penile shortening can be significant. We report the use of Nesbit ellipses autografted to the contralateral corpus for correction of severe penile curvatures in 3 men. This method resulted in a straight penis with minimal shortening.
