TY - JOUR PY - 1995// TI - Successful penis replantation after auto-emasculation with suicidal intent JO - Urologe A A1 - Brenneke, H. J. A1 - Flietner, T. SP - 231 EP - 234 VL - 34 IS - 3 N2 - We report a case of successful penis replantation in a young man with psychotic state and self-emasculation. For replantation we used microsurgical techniques. Success depends on microsurgery and postoperative management. Postoperative care consists in (1) improvement of microcirculation, (2) broad-spectrum antibiotic treatment, (3) blood flow control on a strict hourly schedule, (4) safe supra-pubic urinary diversion, and (5) an elevating dressing for the penis to ensure the blood flow.
