comment
Absence of the penis is always accompanied by abnormal position of the meatus (usually in the perineum, sometimes in the rectum), may be accompanied by Cryptorchidism, and is often associated with non-genital anomalies, which all should be coded separately. Absent penis should be differentiated from a penis concealed within pre-pubic fat tissue.
