A concept

Concealed penis is also called buried penis. The main manifestation is that the penis of an obese child is buried in the fat. From the outside, the penis is short and isolated, the foreskin cavity is empty, the foreskin and penis body are separated, and there may be phimosis. The scrotum and testicles are normally developed.

This condition can be treated surgically at age two or three by fixing the skin to the prepubic fascia and base of the penis. The operation is performed under partial anesthesia and has certain risks.

Three causes

1 Because children are too obese, the penis is buried in the fat layer and the exposed part is relatively small. This hidden penis is normal when the child is born, but if the child eats too much and exercises too little during the growth process, once fat accumulates, the penis will gradually be buried under the skin. In this case, the condition will improve as long as the diet is properly controlled during puberty, and exercise is increased to lose weight, so no treatment is needed.

2 As the penis develops, the abdominal skin does not extend forward closely against the penis, but is directly connected to the coronal sulcus of the glans penis. At this time, only the glans penis or some foreskin folds are visible outside the skin, so some people figuratively compare it to bat sleeves in fashion, while the penis body is buried under the skin. In this case, surgery is required to free the penis and wrap the skin tightly around it to form a cylindrical penis. In this way, the originally normally developed penis will return to its true appearance.

Four treatments

Hidden penis, also known as latent penis, is a rare congenital developmental abnormality. It manifests as an underdeveloped and short penis, with the skin of the penis head directly connected to the abdominal skin and the surrounding fat being thicker, almost burying the penis in the fat, making it hidden and inconspicuous. The penis also appears very short when erect and does not protrude much. There is pain and sexual intercourse is impossible. Some people may also have severe inferior urethral curvature, resulting in difficulty urinating.
