sensation in the phallic skin, and acceptable aesthetics of the phallus. The primary disadvantage is the
very large cutaneous donor site on the forearm. Efforts to improve the aesthetics of the donor site by
sparing the deep fascia over the majority of the forearm or by using Integra to generate a thicker base for
skin grafting have been described. 43 As discussed above, the ALT flap can be used in an analogous
fashion, as has the latissimus dorsi myocutaneous flap. Figure 100.7 demonstrates the result from a
single-stage, radial forearm flap phalloplasty.

Single-Stage Phalloplasty With Two Flaps
Because of the very large donor defect on the forearm and concerns about reduced vascularity at the
periphery of large free-flap skin paddles, the simultaneous use of two separate flaps, one for the urethra
and one for the phallus have been described. Common combinations include a small radial forearm or
ulnar forearm free flap for the urethral component and a pedicled ALT flap for phallic skin or a pedicled
superficial circumflex iliac artery perforator flap for the urethra and an ALT flap for phallic skin. Multiple
other permutations of flaps have been proposed and tried; this heterogeneity underscores the significant
challenge of phallic construction.

Staged Phalloplasty
In an attempt to overcome the high urethral stricture and fistula rates observed after single-stage
phalloplasty, staged procedures have been proposed. One strategy is to perform a urethral lengthening (a
construction of the pars fixa urethra) or even a full metoidioplasty as a first stage, followed by the flap-
based phalloplasty as a second stage. In this approach, the pars fixa urethra is constructed in the same
way as for single-stage phalloplasty, but it is allowed to heal completely before the phalloplasty flap
procedure is performed.
Another strategy has been to prefabricate the penile urethra prior to phalloplasty. 44 Several months in
advance of the planned phalloplasty, the donor flap is partially raised; and vaginal mucosa, buccal
mucosa, or skin grafts are tubed around a catheter within the substance of the flap. This neourethra is
allowed to mature for several months before the entire donor flap is raised and transferred as the
neophallus.

Scrotal Construction
Scrotal construction is generally begun at the time of phalloplasty using hair-bearing flaps from the labia
majora. It is important to place the neoscrotum in its normal anatomic location, anterior to the perineum
at the base of the phallus so as not to interfere with the legs while walking. Multiple specific designs for
scrotal reconstruction have been described, with the most commonly used strategy likely being a V-Y
plasty of the labia majora in combination with labial flaps rotated 90°, thereby recruiting additional skin
anteriorly.

Prostheses for Erectile Function
Semirigid or hydraulic prostheses have been used to achieve erection in phalloplasty patients. The
insertion of the prosthesis is always delayed, generally for at least a year, after phalloplasty. Multiple
strategies to encase the prostheses in synthetic or biologic sheaths and to anchor the prosthesis to the
pubis have been proposed to overcome the high complication rate associated with penile prostheses in
phalloplasty patients. Because most centers still report a 30% or higher rate of extrusion necessitating
removal within 2 or 3 years of prosthesis placement and because reoperation rates approach 100% at
5 years, some centers decline to place penile prostheses. 45,46 As an alternative, patients can be instructed
on the use of external stiffening strategies to engage in intercourse. New prostheses, developed
specifically for phalloplasty patients, may improve success rates in the future.
mebooksfree.net
Complications and Outcomes of Phalloplasty
Because phalloplasty is a multistage, complex flap-based endeavor, patients should be informed that
complications are common. In addition to all the complications attendant with any surgery and with free-
flap surgery specifically, the rates of urinary strictures and fistulas and complications with penile
implants remain, as noted above, high despite the multiple strategies employed to lessen the frequency of
complications. 47,48
There are no high level-of-evidence studies using validated instruments to accurately define patient-
reported or health status outcomes in phalloplasty patients. However, the less rigorous data in the
existing body of literature indicate that despite the high complication rate, the overall patient satisfaction
and results of phalloplasty appear to be acceptable and that “regret” following phalloplasty is rare.
mebooksfree.net
Metoidioplasty
For patients who decline the complexity, multiple stages, and donor-site morbidity of a phalloplasty,
metoidioplasty may be a reasonable option. Testosterone therapy will result in clitoromegaly, allowing
conversion of the clitoris into a small phallus. The basic elements of the procedure include a release of the
ventral chordee of the clitoris, a release of the clitoral suspensory ligament, and lengthening of the female
urethra to exit the tip of the enlarged clitoris. The same techniques for urethral lengthening for
phalloplasties are employed: vaginal mucosal turn-over flaps, labia minora flaps, and buccal grafts,
usually in combination. Because the most critical part of this procedure is the urethral lengthening, and
because the complications of urethral strictures and fistulas are common, it is again our opinion that a
reconstructive urologist should be involved unless the Plastic Surgeon has received additional specialized
training.
The goal of metoidioplasty is to fashion a phallus to affirm male gender identity and to allow standing
micturition, although not all patients achieve this latter goal. Metoidioplasty typically results in a phallus
4 to 8 cm in length so penetrative intercourse is not generally possible (Figure 100.8).

Summary
Gender-affirming surgery is a broad and growing part of Plastic Surgery. For properly selected gender
dysphoric individuals, appropriate surgical intervention can have significant, positive health and quality
of life benefits. Because the diagnosis of gender dysphoria and the selection of candidates for gender-
affirming surgical intervention are outside of the scope of expertise of Plastic Surgeons, it is essential that
care is delivered in a multidisciplinary environment and especially in collaboration with the mental
health team. The WPATH SOC should be the guiding principles for working with this patient population
and for gauging a patient’s readiness for surgery. As reviewed above, a very broad range of surgical
procedures can be considered for both transfeminine and transmasculine individuals. Facial feminization
surgery and transgender top surgery are within the scope of well-trained Plastic Surgeons. On the other
hand, genital sex reassignment procedures, both vaginoplasty and phalloplasty, involve anatomy and
may result in complications that are outside the scope of current Plastic Surgery training. Surgeons
intending to become involved in these procedures must seek additional training and should work with
gynecologic and urologic colleagues to assure appropriate patient outcomes.

vaginoplasty operation. The nerve supplying this flap that provides erogenous sensation and
orgasmic function is the
a. Dorsal penile nerve
b. Ilioinguinal nerve
c. Pudendal nerve
d. Clitoral nerve
1. A patient presents requesting penile inversion vaginoplasty surgery. What are the prerequisites for
transfeminine bottom surgery according to WPATH criteria?
a. Two letters of readiness for surgery from mental health professionals
b. One year of living full time in congruent gender (as a woman)
c. One year of hormonal therapy including estrogen
d. All of the above
3. During the preoperative consultation for radial forearm phalloplasty, a patient asks about
postoperative urinary function. It is very important to him to be able to stand and use a urinal after
surgery. What is the incidence of postoperative urinary stricture/fistula?
a. 5%
b. 10%
c. 30%
d. 80%
4. A patient presents to the office 3 weeks following penile inversion vaginoplasty surgery
complaining of malodorous secretions from her neovagina. On examination, there is feculent
smelling discharge. What should be ruled out?
a. Vaginal candidiasis
b. Menstruation
c. Inadequate hygiene
d. Rectovaginal fistula
5. To prevent perioperative VTE, what medication should be held 3 weeks prior to vaginoplasty
surgery in transfeminine patients?
a. Spironolactone
b. Estradiol
c. Testosterone
d. Depo-provera
6. A patient desires a radial forearm phalloplasty for gender-affirming bottom surgery. Prior to the
operation the operating surgeon must perform what test?
a. Retrograde urethrogram
b. Allen’s test
c. Speculum examination
d. Angiogram of upper extremity
1. Answer: a. The dorsal penile nerve is invested between Buck fascia and the tunica of the corpus
cavernosa and together with the dorsal penile artery and veins composes the pedicle of the
neoclitoral flap.
2. Answer: d. The WPATH SOC are internationally accepted guidelines for transgender care
including prerequisites prior to genital gender-affirming surgery.
mebooksfree.net
3. Answer: c. Urinary strictures and fistula are common at the juncture of the urethral portion of the
radial forearm and the pars fixa urethra.
4. Answer: d. Rectovaginal fistula is a rare (1% incidence) but serious complication of penile
inversion vaginoplasty surgery. A temporary diverting ostomy is required to let the fistula heal in
and the patient must continue to dilate the neovagina during this time. Failure to dilate will result in
contraction of the entire neovagina.
5. Answer: b. Transfeminine patients are at elevated risk of VTE on estrogen therapy, over 14 times
that of cisgender women after 9 years of therapy. Vaginoplasty is a major 5-hour operation with
1 week of modified activity restrictions. Holding estrogen therapy is socially and emotionally
difficult for transgender women, but is necessary to prevent a postoperative pulmonary embolus.
6. Answer: b. An Allen test assesses the superficial and deep arches of the hand. Harvest of a radial
forearm flap will potentially threaten the vascular supply of the hand in patients with an incomplete
arch.

dysphoria into adulthood. Ethical treatment options for trans and gender-nonconforming youth is widely debated, emphasizing the current gap in the
literature reporting childhood gender dysphoria persistence in adulthood. This study suggests predictors of gender dysphoria in adulthood, including
differences between natal sex, familial management, social transitions in childhood, and cognitive representation of gender. Better understanding of
gender dysphoria persistence can help develop improved models of care and health outcomes.

They report the most common technique as “inframammary fold skin excision with free nipple grafting” (42%), corresponding to a significantly less
acute reoperation rate compared to other gender mastectomy techniques; the highest rate of secondary operations occurred highest in the periareolar skin
resection cohort (37.5%). Satisfaction outcome measures were assessed using four studies. High satisfaction rates were consistent in all studies with
little variation after accounting for surgical technique.

contention in current surgical practices involves stopping hormone replacement therapy (HRT) in transmasculine men prior to surgery. This is not
addressed in the WPATH SOC guidelines, and many patients are reluctant to stop testosterone due to undesirable side-effects. This study analyzes the
instances of in-hospital mortality and cardiovascular events between patients who are and are not on HRT. Their report of nearly 50,000 patients
(∼1,000 on testosterone) does not indicate a significant association between preoperative testosterone use and an increased incidence of postoperative
mortality and/or cardiovascular events, underscoring the need to re-evaluate the risks associated with stopping HRT prior to transmasculine gender-
affirming surgery.
