Currently available data are extremely limited; however, they do suggest that, when in doubt, more aggressive debridement of diseased tissue combined with split-thickness skin grafting may provide superior outcomes. Split-thickness skin grafts are associated with excellent rates of successful graft take, even in cases of severe preoperative pathology and patient comorbidity. Although these grafts come at the cost of some increased surgical morbidity, they are associated with low rates of major complications. Morbidity can be further significantly decreased by harvesting the graft from the excised escutcheon itself, a technique that we present here.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Surgical correction of adult buried penis is safe and effective; however, future work is required to further optimize outcomes and reduce surgical morbidity.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jsxm.2018.05.009","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,6,28]],"date-time":"2018-06-28T02:08:39Z","timestamp":1530151719000},"page":"1198-1204","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1016\/elsevier_cm_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":22,"title":["Adult Buried Penis Repair with Escutcheonectomy and Split-Thickness Skin Grafting"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"15","author":[{"given":"Marshall C.","family":"Strother","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Pennsylvania, Department of Surgery, Division of Urology , Philadelphia, PA , USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Alexander J.","family":"Skokan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Pennsylvania, Department of Surgery, Division of Urology , Philadelphia, PA , USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Matthew E.","family":"Sterling","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Temple University Hospital , Philadelphia, PA , USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Paris D.","family":"Butler","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Pennsylvania, Department of Surgery, Division of Plastic Surgery , Philadelphia, PA , USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"R.
