Abstract
We describe the technique of microsurgical penile replantation and a case f ollowed up after two years. The patient was a young man with decompensated schizophrenia who emasculated himself with a kitchen knife. A particularly good functional result was achieved including restoration of sensation in t he penile shaft and in the glans, and return of erectile capacity.
