A new and simplified method for concealing the hypertrophied clitoris.
Current surgical procedures that are utilized in the management of patients with an enlarged clitoris are both complex and challenging. We report a new method of concealing the hypertrophied clitoris between the labia majora instead of resorting to the more difficult clitoral amputation or recession. This concealment of the clitoris is simple, may be done on an outpatient basis, and accomplishes the goal of creating normal-appearing female external genitalia.
