摘　　要：Background:This study aimed to evaluate the long-term penile size among patients who underwent extensive metoidioplasty.Methods:An evaluation was conducted on 7 out of 14 patients(mean age:29.71±13.76 years)who participated in a 2015 study that introduced a postoperative protocol to improve penile size after extensive metoidioplasty.Five transsexual females(46XX karyotype)and two patients with 5-alpha reductase deficiency were retrospectively followed up in 2023 to assess the long-term efficacy of the protocol at a specialized clinic in a general hospital in Tehran,Iran.All participants were informed about the study and consented to participate.Results:Five patients achieved increased penile size from their 2015 measurements(mean,29.00±13.34 mm).Five patients requested a larger sized penile traction device to continue the protocol.Conclusion:The long-term implementation of this protocol can result in increased penile size.We advise highly motivated patients to continue practicing the protocol to achieve better results.
