Preputioplasty
Preputioplasty is any plastic surgical procedure on the prepuce or foreskin.[1]
There are several different procedures. Preputioplasty typically is used to treat phimosis when manual stretching fails. Osmonov et al. (2022) have recently provided an excellent review of available procedures.[2]
