Men with normal penis size sometimes mistakenly believe they have below average penile dimensions and often seek out treatment. Many men suffer from significant anxiety regarding this perceived defect. In this review, we evaluate the current literature of psychological, medical, and surgical treatment options for men with a complaint of a small penis.
To review the current practice for treatment of men presenting for penile augmentation surgery.
A literature review was conducted, using PubMed to identify current studies regarding penile enhancement. Search terms included "penile enhancement," "small penis anxiety," "small penis syndrome," "body dysmorphic disorder," and "penile augmentation."
The literature consistently reveals that men who seek out penile augmentation surgery usually have normal penile dimensions. There are limited published data on the practice of penile lengthening surgery or procedures to increase penile girth. New techniques have expanded on suspensory ligament release, such as tissue grafting and flaps. Structured psychological counseling continues to be the recommended initial standard of care for these men.
Many social forces have increased the perception among men that their penis size is inadequate. This increases anxiety and can lead to psychological disorders such as Penile Dysmorphic Disorder and Small Penis Syndrome. Men who undergo penile enhancement are often not satisfied with the results and may develop complications. Soubra A, Natale C, Brimley S, et al.

正常阴茎尺寸的男性有时会错误地认为自己的阴茎尺寸低于平均水平，并且经常寻求治疗。许多男性对这种感知到的缺陷感到非常焦虑。在这篇综述中，我们评估了目前针对阴茎尺寸过小的男性的心理、医学和手术治疗选择的文献。
回顾目前针对阴茎增大手术的男性治疗实践。
使用 PubMed 进行文献回顾，以确定关于阴茎增强的当前研究。搜索词包括“阴茎增强”、“小阴茎焦虑”、“小阴茎综合征”、“身体变形障碍”和“阴茎增大”。
文献一致表明，寻求阴茎增大手术的男性通常具有正常的阴茎尺寸。关于阴茎延长手术或增加阴茎周长的程序，发表的数据有限。新的技术已经扩展了悬韧带释放，例如组织移植和皮瓣。结构心理辅导仍然是这些男性的推荐初始标准护理。
许多社会因素增加了男性对自己阴茎尺寸不足的看法。这会增加焦虑，并导致心理障碍，如阴茎畸形障碍和小阴茎综合征。接受阴茎增强的男性通常对结果不满意，并可能出现并发症。Soubra A, Natale C, Brimley S, et al. Revelations on Men Who Seek Penile Augmentation Surgery: A Review. Sex Med Rev 2022;10:453-460.
