Idiopathic clitoromegaly, characterized by an enlarged clitoris with no identifiable cause, is a rare condition that poses both physical and psychological challenges. A recent case study highlights a successful surgical approach to managing this condition in a patient with HBsAg-positive status.
Key Highlights:
- Rare Diagnosis: Idiopathic clitoromegaly is uncommon, with cases often underreported due to social stigma and lack of awareness.
- Surgical Innovation: The procedure involved a dorsal nerve-sparing clitoroplasty, preserving neurovascular bundles to maintain sexual function while achieving normal genital anatomy.
- Patient Outcomes: The patient experienced an uneventful recovery and reported significant psychological and physical relief, resuming a healthy marital life post-surgery.
- Comprehensive Care: The case emphasizes the importance of accurate diagnosis, multidisciplinary consultation, and tailored surgical techniques to address both the functional and emotional needs of the patient.
This report underscores the potential of advanced surgical techniques like nerve-sparing clitoroplasty to provide effective and compassionate care for individuals with this rare condition.
