Pedicled Prepucial Tube Urethroplasty
Pedicled prepucial tube urethroplasty uses inner prepucial skin, with its rich vascular pedicle via the dartos fascia, to create a neo-urethra by tubularizing the graft around a catheter. The technique is reserved for patients with abundant, non-diseased prepucial tissue and is particularly suited to penile urethral reconstruction. Hairless inner prepucial skin minimizes the risk of hair-related complications within the neourethra.
