Surf these sites: A Non-Surgical approach to the treatment of Phimosis -- From the Department of Urology, Yüzüncü Yil University School of Medicine, Van and Department of Pediatrics, Mevki Military Hospital and Departments of Pediatric Surgery and Pediatrics, Gülhane Military Medical Academy, Ankara, Turkey A new method of treatment for adult phimosis -- From the Division of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, School of Medicine, Fukuoka University, Fukuoka, Japan. Balanitis -- Balanitis is the inflamation of the glans penis. Balanitis involving the foreskin or prepuce is termed balanoposthitis. The most common complication of balanitis is phimosis or inability to retract the foreskin from the glans penis due to inflamation Conservative Treatment of Phimosis -- Conservative Treatment of Phimosis: Alternatives to Radical Circumcision Conservative Treatments -- Phimosis is a name given to the condition where the foreskin is unretractable. We must distinguish normal (physiological) unretractability from abnormal (pathological) unretractability. Physiological unretractability of the foreskin is found in nearly all new-born infants, and its prevalence decreases with advancing age. development. It is not an indication for circumcision. Male Sexual Anatomy - The Foreskin -- The Foreskin - What is it and how it works - Pictures and Diagrams - Circumcision Issues - Foreskin Restoration - The Intact Penis... Need to brush up on your anatomy of what the foreskin is and how it works? This site contains explicit pictures with all the details, along with guidelines on caring for intact children. Normal Development of the Prepuce -- Normal development of the prepuce: Birth through age 18 Phimosis and Paraphimosis -- Authored by Santos Cantu, Jr., M.D., Fellow, Pediatric Emergency Medicine, Instructor and Fellow of Pediatrics and Emergency Medicine, Section of Emergency Medicine and of Pediatrics, University of Rochester Phimosis: Is Circumcision Necessary? -- Circumcision has been the traditional treatment for phimosis, but now is not the only management option, the best of which appears to be topical steroid application Prepuceplasty: an alternative to circumcision. -- The operation of prepuceplasty overcomes phimosis in children while conserving the foreskin. The narrowed preputial outlet is incised longitudinally and repaired transversely. When appropriate, this minor procedure produces lasting relief of the deformity, as shown in 55 patients followed for up to 20 years. Save the Prepuce. Painless separation of preputial adhesions -- In most boys referred for circumcision preputial adhesions are the only problem, but these can predispose to recurrent balanitis. A simple technique using EMLA cream (eutectic mixture of lignocaine and prilocaine) has been devised which allows the adhesions to be separated painlessly in theoutpatient clinic. The Dorsal Slit -- This essay discusses adhesions, phimosis and frenulum breve. These genital conditions anatomically inhibit the relationship between the foreskin and the glans, particularly on the erect penis. This functionally restricts the erection, and thus has an effect on the sexuality. In the case of phimosis, an incision would often be sufficient to remove the immediate obstruction. The Origins of a Taboo -- This essay was written on the basis of insights, common sense and open minded research. To my knowledge "The Origins of a Taboo" presents the most detailed collection of information in the world''s literature, on the subject of male sexual problems due to foreskin malformations. As this is rather an unpleasant honour to be claiming, I''d prefer to think of our subject as: adhesions, phimosis and frenulum breve and their relationship to male initiations and identity. The Treatment of Childhood Phimosis with Topical Steroid -- J. E. Wright - University of Newcastle Medical School Newcastle New South Wales, Australia. A prospective study of the efficacy of topical steroid in the treatment of childhood phimosis. Tripod Ask the Doctor: Phimosis -- I am an uncircumcised male. When I have an erection my foreskin does not retract and at times can be very difficult to pull back if I am not well lubricated. I am considering whether I should be circumcised even though I really do not want to do this.
