The reason behind the spread of penis enlargement practices over time is rooted in the virility that the appearance of the genitals can give a man, as well as an altered perception of his own body. The approach should be to modulate the interventions on the real needs of patients, carefully evaluating the history, the psychological picture, and possible surgical advantages. The aim of this study was to shed light on cosmetic surgery of male genitalia through minimally invasive and more radical techniques, with the purpose of laying the foundation for possible indications and recommendations for the future. A non-systematic literature review using the PubMed and Scopus databases was conducted to retrieve papers written in English on cosmetic surgery of the penis published over the past 15 years. Papers discussing cosmetic surgery in patients with concomitant pathologies associated with sexual dysfunction were excluded. The main outcomes recorded were change in penile dimensions in term of length and girth and surgical complications.
随着时间的推移，阴茎增大术传播的原因源于生殖器外观能赋予男性的男子气概，以及对自身身体的认知改变。治疗方法应该是根据患者的实际需求来调节干预措施，仔细评估病史、心理状况和可能的手术优势。本研究旨在通过微创和更激进的技术揭示男性外生殖器的美容手术，为未来的可能适应证和建议奠定基础。使用 PubMed 和 Scopus 数据库进行了非系统性文献回顾，以检索过去 15 年发表的关于阴茎美容手术的英文论文。排除了讨论伴有性功能障碍相关合并症的患者的美容手术的论文。记录的主要结果是阴茎长度和周长的尺寸变化和手术并发症。
