At the end of the first year of life, retraction of the foreskin behind the glandular sulcus is possible in approximately 5. The incidence of phimosis is 8 in six to seven year olds and just 1 in males aged sixteen to eighteen years 6. Classification systems. The phimosis is either primary with no sign of scarring, or secondary pathological to a scarring such as balanitis xerotica obliterans BXO 6. Balanitis xerotica obliterans, also termed lichen sclerosis, has been recently found in 1. The clinical appearance of BXO in children may be confusing and does not correlate with the final histopathological results. Chronic inflammation was the most common finding 7 LE 2b. Phimosis has to be distinguished from normal agglutination of the foreskin to the glans, which is a more or less lasting physiological phenomenon with clearly visible meatus and free partial retraction 8. Paraphimosis must be regarded as an emergency situation retraction of a too narrow prepuce behind the glans penis into the glanular sulcus may constrict the shaft and lead to oedema of the glans and retracted foreskin. It interferes with perfusion distally from the constrictive ring and brings a risk of preputial necrosis. Diagnostic evaluation. Virtual Pc Windows 2000 Iso more. The diagnosis of phimosis and paraphimosis is made by physical examination. If the prepuce is not retractable, or only partly retractable, and shows a constrictive ring on drawing back over the glans penis, a disproportion between the width of the foreskin and the diameter of the glans penis has to be assumed. In addition to the constricted foreskin, there may be adhesions between the inner surface of the prepuce and the glanular epithelium andor a fraenulum breve. Paraphimosis is characterised by a retracted foreskin with the constrictive ring localised at the level of the sulcus, which prevents replacement of the foreskin over the glans. Management. Conservative treatment is an option for primary phimosis. A corticoid ointment or cream 0. LE 1b. A recurrence rate of up to 1. This treatment has no side effects and the mean bloodspot cortisol levels are not significantly different from an untreated group of patients 1. LE 1b. The hypothalamic pituitary adrenal axis was not influenced by local corticoid treatment 1. Agglutination of the foreskin does not respond to steroid treatment 1. LE 2. Operative treatment of phimosis in children is dependent on the parents preferences and can be plastic or radical circumcision after completion of the second year of life. Alternatively, the Shang Ring may be used especially in developing countries 1. Plastic circumcision has the objective of achieving a wide foreskin circumference with full retractability, while the foreskin is preserved dorsal incision, partial circumcision. However, this procedure carries the potential for recurrence of the phimosis 1. In the same session, adhesions are released and an associated fraenulum breve is corrected by fraenulotomy. Meatoplasty is added if necessary. An absolute indication for circumcision is secondary phimosis. In primary phimosis, recurrent balanoposthitis and recurrent urinary tract infections UTIs in patients with urinary tract abnormalities are indications for intervention 1. LE 2b. Male circumcision significantly reduces the bacterial colonisation of the glans penis with regard to both non uropathogenic and uropathogenic bacteria 2. LE 2b. Simple ballooning of the foreskin during micturition is not a strict indication for circumcision. Routine neonatal circumcision to prevent penile carcinoma is not indicated. A recent meta analysis could not find any risk in uncircumcised patients without a history of phimosis 2. Contraindications for circumcision are an acute local infection and congenital anomalies of the penis, particularly hypospadias or buried penis, as the foreskin may be required for a reconstructive procedure 2. Circumcision can be performed in children with coagulopathy with 1 5 suffering complications bleeding, if haemostatic agents or a diathermic knife are used 2. Childhood circumcision has an appreciable morbidity and should not be recommended without a medical reason and also taking into account epidemiological and social aspects 2. LE 1b. Treatment of paraphimosis consists of manual compression of the oedematous tissue with a subsequent attempt to retract the tightened foreskin over the glans penis. Injection of hyaluronidase beneath the narrow band or 2. LE 3 4. If this manoeuvre fails, a dorsal incision of the constrictive ring is required. Depending on the local findings, a circumcision is carried out immediately or can be performed in a second session. Follow up. Any surgery done on the prepuce requires an early follow up of four to six weeks after surgery. Summary of evidence and recommendations for the management of phimosis. Summary of evidence.

In primary phimosis, conservative treatment with a corticoid ointment or cream is a first line treatment with a success rate of more than 9. Recommendations.

Circumcision will also solve the problem if being considered. ADo not delay treatment of primary phimosis in recurrent balanoposthitis and recurrent urinary tract infection UTI in patients with urinary tract abnormalities. ACircumcision is indicated in secondary phimosis. ADo not delay treatment in case of paraphimosis, this is an emergency situation. Perform a dorsal incision of the constrictive ring if manual reposition has failed. BRoutine neonatal circumcision is not recommended to prevent penile carcinoma. B3. 2. Management of undescended testes. Background. Cryptorchidism or undescended testis is one of the most common congenital malformations of male neonates. Incidence varies and depends on gestational age, affecting 1. Following spontaneous descent within the first months of life, nearly 1. This congenital malformation may affect both sides in up to 3. In newborn cases with non palpable or undescended testes on both sides and any sign of disorders of sex development DSDs like concomitant hypospadias, urgent endocrinological and genetic evaluation is required 3. Classification. The term cryptorchidism is most often used synonymously for undescended testes. The most useful classification of undescended testes is distinguishing into palpable and non palpable testes, and clinical management is decided by the location and presence of the testes see Figure 1. Approximately 8. 0 of all undescended testes are palpable 3. Acquired undescended testes can be caused by entrapment after herniorrhaphy or spontaneously referred to as ascending testis. Palpable testes include true undescended testes and ectopic testes. Non palpable testes include intra abdominal, inguinal, absent, and sometimes also some ectopic testes. Most importantly, the diagnosis of palpable or non palpable testis needs to be confirmed once the child is under general anaesthesia, as this is the first step of any surgical procedure for undescended testes.
