Denuded penis is a surgical disaster caused by poor surgical technique during a circumcision operation resulting in the destruction of all of the skin of the penis.

Case reports

Wilson & Wilson (1959) reported a case in which the denuded penis was covered with scrotal skin.[1]

Van Duyn & Warr (1962) reported a case of excessive skin removal in which a split-thickness skin graft was used to supply the needed skin.[2]

Sinha & Mushtaq (2012) have described one such iatrogenic event which was treated by split thickness and full-thickness skin grafts.[3]
