释义 | paraphimosisparaphimosis(ˌpærəˌfɪˈməʊsɪs)Paraphimosisparaphimosis[‚par·ə·fə′mō·səs]Paraphimosisstrangulation of the glans penis by the internal layer of the prepuce that usually occurs when the prepuce is forcibly retracted from the glans. Predisposing conditions are phimosis, balanitis, and scarring of gonorrheal or chancroid ulcers along the edges of the prepuce. Constriction by the preputial ring gives rise to circulatory disturbances in the glans penis and in the internal layer of the prepuce. The glans and prepuce may undergo partial necrosis and, occasionally, become gangrenous. The treatment for paraphimosis is surgery. Prevention includes hygienic care of the prepuce and surgical correction of phimosis. paraphimosisparaphimosis[par″ah-fi-mo´sis]![]() par·a·phi·mo·sis(par'ă-fī-mō'sis),paraphimosisUrology The inability to pull the retracted foreskin–in an uncircumcised ♂–over the head of the penis Etiology Inflammation and stenosis of foreskin, due to infection and poor personal hygiene; it may follow direct trauma to the area, resulting in swellingpar·a·phi·mo·sis(par'ă-fī-mō'sis)paraphimosisConstriction of the neck of the bulb (GLANS) of the penis, following retraction of a very tight foreskin (PREPUCE), of such degree as to interfere with the return of blood by the veins. The gland and prepuce become greatly swollen and the condition worsens. Treatment involves compressing the glans so that the prepuce can be pulled forward. This may be assisted by injection of an enzyme, hyaluronidase, to aid the dispersion of OEDEMA fluid. Later CIRCUMCISION is indicated.Paraphimosis |
