glansplasty

Noun

 * 1) The surgical (re)construction of a glans penis, in particular its ridge (the corona glandis penis, typically resulting in a circumcised-looking penis).
 * 2) * 2018, I. Nolan, C.S. Crowe, et al., Cultural considerations regarding glansplasty, in the journal of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery:
 * A variety of flaps have been pioneered to meet these goals, and many of them allow for glansplasty to approximate a corona.
 * 1) * 2022, Soumya A. Reddy, et al., High Surgical Complication Rates after Silicone Implant Use for Improvement of Glans Ridge Appearance, in Plast Reconstr Surg Glob Open (2022 Jul 22)
 * Most patients receiving phalloplasty surgery undergo a glansplasty to create a glans ridge and recapitulate the appearance of a circumcised phallus. Patients and surgeons should be aware of the possibility of a novel silicone implant technique to create a glansplasty in those with failed/flattened previous glansplasty surgery.
