Penile reconstruction, or phalloplasty, is a surgical procedure which rebuilds the penis and restores functionality for both urination and sexual activity. During phalloplasty, the surgery creates a tube (the urethra) within a tube (the neophallus). This tube is connected to the nerves and blood supply of the lower pelvis, with the inner tube being connected to the urethra. If required, the head of the penis will be sculpted out of this tissue.

In transitioning males, phalloplasty is often the final step in the gender confirmation of female-to-male transgender patients.

The general technique used during penile reconstruction is called radial artery-based forearm phalloplasty, or RAP. Within your forearm, there are two large arteries which supply the forearm with blood. During RAP, one of the arteries and at least one large nerve as well as external skin and the soft tissue which protects the bone is removed and rolled into a tube. Dr. Elist will attach this neophallus to the blood and nerve tissues in the groin. You may also choose to have a penile implant installed at this time in order to achieve an erection. WHAT IS THE RECOVERY FROM PENILE RECONSTRUCTION LIKE? Dr. Elist will provide you with detailed instructions for your recovery before your procedure. You will be provided with pain medication to allow you to recover in comfort. It is important that you avoid any strenuous activities, including anything that would require pushing, pulling, lifting, jumping, running, or straining for at least six weeks. Light activity, however, will be an important part of your recovery as it encourages blood flow to your newly-reconstructed penis. You should not shower or wash your neophallus until Dr. Elist instructs you to do so. A member of our medical staff will be here for you to answer any questions you have during your recovery process.
