Layers of PENIS
- Skin
- Superficial Fascia (DARTOS)
- Areolar tissue
- Deep Fascia (BUCK’S)
- TUNICA ALBUGINEA

PHIMOSIS
Meaning
Inability to retract FORESKIN
PHIMOSIS is PHYSIOLOGICAL TILL AGE
2years (In some: 6yrs)
🧑🏻⚕️ Clinical Features of PHIMOSIS
- Asymptomatic
- Symptomatic
✨ Balloning of Foreskin while passing urine
✨ UTI Recurrent
✨ Balanoposthitis (Infection of the GLANS Penis (OR) Prepuce)
✨ Hydronephrosis
Indications for SURGERY in PHIMOSIS
- All Symptomatic cases
- > 6yrs ➕ Asymptomatic
- Religious reasons
- Therapeutic (in Penile Cancer to give Radiotherapy)
💊💉 MANAGEMENT of PHIMOSIS
🧠⚡ PGS⚡
Surgery:
1. Conventional CIRCUMCISION
2. Plastibel
3. Gomco clamps
4. Staplers
INCISION to Foreskin is always given
DORSALLY
✨ Ventral Incision is not given DUE TO:
1. FRENULAR Vessels ➕
2. Urethra ➕
COMPLICATIONS of CIRCUMCISION
- Hemorrhage: Frenular Vessels
- Infections
- CHORDEE: Bending of Penis
PARAPHIMOSIS
🧠⚡PARA⚡
Foreskin forms CONSTRICTION RING around the PENIS (ex: After Catheterization)
🧑🏻⚕️ Clinical Features of PARAPHIMOSIS
MEDICAL EMERGENCY
- Swollen Edematous Foreskin
- CONSTRICTION of Penis
💊💉 MANAGEMENT of PARAPHIMOSIS
- Apply JELLY & Deposit Foreskin
- Ice bags & Gentle Compression
- Puncture in Swollen Foreskin
- Dorsal slit procedure
- Circumcision
⚡⚡ MOST COMMON CONGENITAL UROGENITAL ANOMALY
