Peenlõiget

Peenlõiget, also known as penile amputation, is a surgical procedure in which the penis is cut off at the level of the pubic symphysis. This procedure is typically performed for medical reasons, such as severe penile cancer, penile trauma, or penile deformities. The surgery is usually performed under general anesthesia and can be done as an outpatient procedure.

The procedure involves cutting the penis at the desired level and then suturing the wound closed. The procedure can be done using various techniques, including the use of lasers or electrocautery. The surgery is typically followed by a period of recovery, during which the patient may experience pain, swelling, and other complications.

Peenlõiget can have significant psychological and social impacts on the patient and their partner. The procedure can result in changes to sexual function and intimacy, and may require counseling or therapy to help the patient and their partner cope with the changes. Additionally, the procedure can result in changes to the patient's body image and self-esteem.

In some cases, penile prostheses may be recommended to help restore sexual function and improve body image. These prostheses can be either inflatable or semi-rigid and are typically inserted through a small incision in the scrotum.

Peenlõiget is a complex surgical procedure that requires careful consideration and planning. It is important for patients to discuss the procedure with their healthcare provider and to understand the potential risks and benefits before undergoing the surgery.
