Abstract
Total necrosis of the penis is a very serious complication of circumci sion with an electrical scalpel. Reconstruction of the penis was achie ved by mobilization of the corpora cavernosa and detachment from the i schiopubic rami, which was then placed in a scrotal tunnel to avoid re current adhesion to ischiopubic rami and to ensure skin cover of the p enis. After a follow-up of 6 months, this child urinated with a good s tream and presented spontaneous erections.
