| Sumario: | Objectives: To describe our reconstructive technique, without flap or graft use, after penile self-augmentation with injected substances, such as paraffin, which are still performed with unfortunate consequences. Patient and methods: Successful single-stage minimal surgical management of an already twice unsuccessfully managed ulcerative penile paraffinoma in a 38-year-old Greek man. Results: The patient was discharged with no postoperative complications, with a five-item version of the International Index of Erectile Function score of 23/25 (i.e. normal erectile function) and flaccid penile length of 5 cm. Conclusions: Penile paraffinoma is a serious complication that can be successfully managed with a single-stage minimal surgical procedure, with normal aesthetic and functional results. Keywords: Paraffinoma, Penile augmentation, Penile injection, Penile reconstruction |
