Efficacy and Stability of Autologous Fat Grafting for Penile Girth Augmentation
Sponsor: Assiut University
Summary
The primary aim of this study is to evaluate the clinical and radiological efficacy and long-term stability of autologous fat grafting as a method for girth augmentation. The procedure involves extracting approximately 40-80 mL of fat from the patient's lower abdomen. This harvested fat is repeatedly washed , and then injected into the penile dartos layer to enhance penile circumference. The study will enroll male individuals between 21-60 years old who have regular coital activity, are dissatisfied with their penile girth, and have a flaccid mid-shaft penile circumference of less than 11 cm. Researchers will measure the clinical success of the procedure by tracking the mean change in penile mid-shaft circumference. Additionally, high-resolution ultrasonography will be used at 6 weeks post-operatively to objectively assess the survival and thickness of the transplanted fat layer. Finally, at a three-month follow-up, patient satisfaction will be evaluated to measure improvements in aesthetic outcomes and functional satisfaction.

Autologous Fat Grafting
Approximately 40-80 mL of body fat is harvested from the patient's lower abdomen using a multiperforated cannula. The harvested fat is repeatedly washed with sterile physiological saline to remove blood and debris, then undergoes mechanical refinement to reduce globule size. Finally, the refined fat is transferred to 3-mL syringes and injected into the four quadrants of the penile dartos layer (just above the tunica albuginea) using a blunt 18-gauge cannula.
