Abstract

We report the case of a transgender patient who was referred to our department for management of chronic strictures of his neophalloplasty. We successfully used a free jejunal flap for a long anterior urethral reconstruction. He achieved a patent and functional urethra with satisfactory urinary control and was happy with the cosmetic outcome.
