Urology Penile Conditions UROLOGY PENILE CONDITIONS PARAPHIMOSIS Prolonged retraction of uncircumcised foreskin behind the glans Results in tight stricture developing → venous occlusion & oedema of the foreskin It is a urological emergency as eventually swelling causes arterial occlusion & necrosis of the glans Almost always induced, often iatrogenically To reduce: o Ask the patient to apply circumferential pressure to the foreskin for up to 10 mins o Use instillagel for anaesthetic effect o Use both hand try to pull the foreskin back over the glans o Adjuncts include soaking in Dextrose solution for osmotic effect or using a fine needle to puncture the oedematous area to provide an outlet o If unsuccessful Urology may have to make an incision to the foreskin to allow reduction BALANITIS/ POSTHITIS Inflammation of the glans/ foreskin Signs include erythema +/- erosions, tenderness, foul smelling discharge Causes include infection (including STIs) environmental substances & trauma Candida albicans is the most common cause Treatment depends on cause, if infection suspected treat with chloramphenicol, if STI suspected, advise attendance to the Sandyford HAP 24 Kevin Gervin 2/4/17 PRIAPISM Prolonged (usually 6 hours) penile erection in the absence of sexual stimulus & unresolved by ejaculation. There are two types Ischaemic (95%) Non-ischaemic (5%) Causes include sickle cell anaemia, cocaine Caused by a connection between the artery & antipsychotics & cavernosum or injury to parasympathetic Blood becomes trapped in the corpus supply cavernosum Usually not painful Painful Ischaemic type is essentially a compartment syndrome of the penis If not treated there is a risk of ischaemic injury Initial treatment may involve a penile nerve block & aspiration of the corpus cavernosum If unsuccessful small amounts of phenylephrine can be injected to the cavernosum PENILE FRACTURE Caused by blunt trauma to the erect penis, usually during intercourse, patients often report a cracking/ popping spund Results in rupture of one or both of the tunica alberinea covering the corpus cavernosa Significant pain, immediate loss of erection, swelling and visible bruising It usually requires emergent repair by urology to minimise future erectile dysfunction HAP 24 Kevin Gervin 2/4/17 .

  • Assessment of Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms in Younger Men
    MEN’S HEALTH ASSESSMENT OF LOWER URINARY TRACT SYMPTOMS IN YOUNGER MEN Lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) are common in the ageing male and represent a significant burden on both the patient and the healthcare system worldwide. 1,2 Accordingly, the majority of clinical trials and guidelines focus on the older patient, despite the fact that men below these ages will also present with many of the same symptoms. In this review, the authors explore the challenges of assessing and managing men below 50 years with LUTS.

The authors experienced a case of macro-paraffinoma associated with sexual dysfunction, voiding dysfunction, and pain caused by a buried glans penis after a paraffin injection for penis enlargement that had been performed 35 years previously.
