Non-conspicuous penis (congenital megaprepuce, occult penis) is a symptomatic malformation that includes phimosis and excessively baggy, urine-filled prepuce with alteration of the appearance of the penis. A redundant and enlarged foreskin is the main feature of this entity.This congenital anomaly is difficult to diagnose and may have association with other pathologies such as buried penis. Currently, part of the megaprepuce skin is used to correct the defect. A recent study shows that patients with this pathology and hypospadias present mostly defects in the muscle dartos. The investigators do not know the physiological bases of the megaprepuce, neither the clinical and aesthetics implications of this abnormal tissue for the patient, and how this affects the postoperative evolution. With the present study the investigators intended to answer these questions and to open paths for future research in this area.
