Zusammenfassung:Reconstruction of a penis using a modified Gillies technique was performed on a forty-one-year-old man who had a total penectomy, inguinal node dissection, and 6,000 rads of cobalt-60 irradiation for carcinoma of the penis. The three different surgical techniques for reconstructing the penis are discussed in detail. It is our belief that reconstruction of a urethra and placement of a baculum in penile reconstruction after radiation therapy have more disadvantages than advantages. The literature is reviewed.
