Correlation of severity of penile torsion with type of hypospadias & ventral penile curvature and their management

Abnormalities of Penile Curvature: Chordee and Penile Torsion

Congenital chordee and penile torsion are commonly observed in the presence of hypospadias, but can also be seen in boys with the meatus in its orthotopic position. Varying degrees of penile curvature are observed in 4-10% of males in the absence of hypospadias. Penile torsion can be observed at birth or in older boys who were circumcised at birth. Surgical management of congenital curvature wi...

Commentary: Management of High-Grade Penile Curvature Associated with Hypospadias in Children

Management of High-Grade Penile Curvature Associated With Hypospadias in Children

Penile curvature is a frequent feature associated with hypospadias with also a great variability of severity among each patient. While the low-grade curvature (<30°) can be relatively easily corrected by simple techniques like penile degloving and dorsal plication, severe cases often demand more complex maneuvers to manage it. A great number of surgical techniques have been developed to adequat...

detection of volatile compounds of medicinal plants with some nano-sorbents using modified or new methodologies and investigation of antioxidant activity of their methanolic extracts

in this work, a novel and fast method for direct analysis of volatile compounds (davc) of medicinal plants has been developed by holding a filament from different parts of a plant in the gc injection port. the extraction and analysis of volatile components of a small amount of plant were carried out in one-step without any sample preparation. after optimization of temperature, extraction time a...

The management of moderate and severe congenital penile torsion associated with hypospadias: Urethral mobilisation is not a panacea against torsion

Sir, We compliment and congratulate the authors of this paper for using urethral mobilisation to correct torsion associated with hypospadias, and appreciate the hard work done in compiling the data for their publication [1]. However, there are a few points in the management of congenital penile torsion and the discussion section of the article that we would like to clarify. 1. There is a spelli...
