[Choice of flaps for phalloplasty: what is the contemporary standard? Consensus Statement of the German-Speaking Society for Microsurgery of Peripheral Nerves and Vessels].
Handchirurgie, Mikrochirurgie, Plastische Chirurgie 2023 October 3
The ever-expanding number of transmen as well as their surgeons share an increasing interest in the construction of a neophallus. While the indication for surgery and the positive effect of a phalloplasty on the quality of life, mental health and sexual function has already been thoroughly analysed, there is a lack of data comparing and evaluating the surgical steps. During the consensus conference on the "choice of flaps for phalloplasty" at the annual meeting of the German-Speaking Society for Microsurgery of Peripheral Nerves and Vessels, the current literature was discussed and a consensus on the surgical technique of a phalloplasty was reached. This manuscript publishes jointly developed recommendations on the following topics: choice of flaps for phalloplasty, preoperative diagnostic tests before phalloplasty, urethral construction in the radial forearm flap and anterior lateral thigh flap, preformation of the urethra at the forearm or thigh, venous drainage of the radial forearm flap, innervation of the phallus, staged phalloplasty, coronaplasty and managing the donor site of a radial forearm flap.
