We present our results of sensation-preserving clitoral reduction procedure in the small group of patients.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Aims and Objectives:<\/jats:title>\n To show our technique and result of sensation-preserving clitoral reduction surgery.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Materials and Methods:<\/jats:title>\n This is a retrospective study of cases with clitoromegaly, over a 5-year period, in which sensation-preserving clitoral reduction procedure was done by us at our centre. Demographics, indication for clitoral reduction, operative procedure, operative time, any intraoperative difficulty or problem, anaesthesia type, post-operative stay and outcome were analysed. Pre-operative and post-operative evaluation for clitoral viability done in all the cases, and evaluation for clitoral sensory testing and vibratory sensory testing done in selected cases.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results:<\/jats:title>\n A total of eight cases were operated in the last 5 years. Five were due to congenital adrenal hyperplasia. Immediate post-operative period was uneventful in all. Cosmetic appearance and viability were satisfactory in all the cases. In five cases, clitoral sensory testing and vibratory sensory testing were done, an average degree of sensation of 3.2 at the labia minora and 4.7 at the clitoris and an average values clitoral vibratory sensory testing for the introitus, clitoris, labia and thigh were 3.56, 1.61, 5.08 and 5.83, respectively.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n Clitoral enlargement in girls is a rare problem. Sensation-preserving ventral clitoral reduction surgery leads to preservation of neurovascular bundles leads to acceptable cosmesis and preserved sensation.<\/jats:p>\n
