Revision needed after 4 months, cylinder tip off track

[Mattbg7]

4 months later it seems I will have to go through the same inconvenience again. The right cylinder tip veered off course during surgery. It has pushed the head and cocked it to the left. It is very noticeable, the skin is very thin (1mm).

Two procedures are recommended to fix this. Cocking the head back to the right with sutures, which is likely not to work. Or a repositioning of the cylinder tip and graft. This would be done through a circumcision incision. (I am already circumcised). I am told there is no rush to do either.

The latter procedure is described as less invasive than original surgery. To me it is the same or worse.

Days off work, 4 weeks of recovery with no working out, no sex. And now no cycling during that time and a new scar.

Here are my concerns listed in order of importance.

1. New Frankenstein scar for 1 year
2. No working out
3. No cycling (a set back)
4. More money to reach my deductible

Hello Mattbg7. I had the exact same thing happen to me. It was my left cylinder. For me, it was most likely due to a hard curve that I had to the right. The left cylinder was struggling to straighten out the curve and it began to press out creating a situation where it was visible and palpable. The skin/tissue was very thin and I was super concerned about erosion. At the three year mark (about a year ago) Dr. Hakky had to “re-thread” it through an incision on the circumcision line. If you have any questions, I am happy to help out with info on the procedure.
