Abstract
Penile skin loss may occur after trauma, infection, or as a result of surgical resection. This article reviews indications for reconstruction of the penile skin, skin anatomy, and skin graft physiology. Choice of reconstructive options, skin grafting techniques, and complications of skin grafting are also discussed.
