McAninch Transverse Circular Penile Skin Flap

The McAninch flap harvests a transverse circular segment of non-hairbearing penile shaft skin on a dorsal pedicle to reconstruct long-segment penile or bulbar urethral strictures. The flap's axial blood supply via the superficial penile fascia provides reliable vascularity for one-stage repair. This technique is particularly valuable when buccal mucosa is insufficient or unavailable.
