A total penectomy, the entire penis, including the root that goes into the pelvis, is removed. In this case, the urethra (tube that allows urine to leave the body) will be rerouted to a spot in the perineum. This is the area between your scrotum and your anus. This is called a perineal urethrostomy. You’ll need to sit when you urinate.
