title: Immediate reconstruction for penile agenesis.
abstract: The goal of treatment for penile agenesis is early female gender assignment and feminizing reconstruction of the perineum. Historically, this required multiple operations including both vesicostomy and colostomy. The present case demonstrates the feasibility of early total reconstruction through a posterior sagittal approach that avoids diversion of stool and urine.
