Summary:
The authors used as a standard a one-stage method of microsurgical reconstruction of the penis, urethra and
glans in 38 transsexual patients, a combination of Biemer’s method, Trengove-Jones and Horton’s suture of the
glans. The reconstruction method is described in detail.
Although reconstruction of the penis and urethra involved a group of 49 patients and accounted for less than 10%
of all microsurgical tissue transfers in traumatology, oncological surgery and congenital defects, they are an im-
portant activity in systematic surgery.
