چکیده

The authors report their experience in ambulatory treatment of cicatrizial phimosis in outpatients, by using local anaesthesia with eutectic cream of lidocaine and prilocaine. This preliminary study shows that preparation seems to be effective and well tolerated. To the aim of getting a good analgesic result the most important aspects are a careful application of the cream all over the concerned area and an occlusive bandage for 60-90 minutes at least.

The effects of the cutaneous application of EMLA cream (a eutectic mixture of lignocaine and prilocaine in their base form) were studied in volunteers. When tested by pin-prick, EMLA cream 2.5% and 5% produced analgesia of the area tested, the cream being most effective if left in contact with the skin for 60 min.
