Buried Penis: Causes, Complications, Diagnosis And Treatment
Buried penis is a condition that affects both boys and adult men. It is an uncommon condition that tends to be hereditary. A study showed that less than 4% newborns in Japan have buried penis [1].
In children, buried penis occurs due to poor skin suspension, abnormal excess fat accumulation in the pubic area or trapped penis due to scarring post-circumcision. In adults, it occurs due to obesity.
What Is Buried Penis?
It is a hereditary condition in which the penis is normal in size, but appears to be small because it's hidden under the abdomen, thigh or scrotum skin. Buried penis can affect urination and sexual arousal and usually, it can be treated with surgery [2].
What Causes Buried Penis?
• Birth abnormalities - It usually occurs at birth when the ligaments that are attached to the penis are abnormally weak [3].
• Obesity - Excess fat around the abdomen and genital area may cover the penis [4].
• Lymphedema - Buried penis can be a cause of lymphedema, a condition of swelling around the scrotum area due to the accumulation of lymph fluid.
• Circumcision - The removal of foreskin during circumcision causes buried penis [5].
