   Coordinate term: neovagina

   • 1994, Gordene Olga MacKenzie, Transgender nation:

     The neopenis can only become erect by inserting stiff material into it or by having plastic tubes implanted into the groin, so that pressing a bulb will cause the penis to hydraulically inflate with fluid and erect.

   • 2015, Vincenzo Mirone, Clinical Uro-Andrology, page 39:

     Although many of the phalloplasty techniques may achieve closely the goals of a neopenis with normal urination, none of them are perfect, and therefore none have achieved universal acceptance.
