External genital organ conditions
Diagnosis and management of conditions of the external genital organs (penis, testes, and scrotum)
Conditions of the external genital organs include inflammatory, anatomical, infectious, and oncological conditions that can affect functionality, fertility, and quality of life. Timely urological assessment contributes to effective management and prevention of complications.
Penile and genital warts
Warts are an infection caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV) and appear as small lesions in the genital area. Early diagnosis contributes to effective treatment and limiting transmission.
Symptoms
Small skin lesions or swellings appear on the penis or genital area. They may be accompanied by itching or discomfort, while often causing no symptoms at all.
Diagnosis
Diagnosis is mainly made through clinical urological examination. In special cases, further investigation may be required to rule out other lesions.
Treatment
Treatment includes cauterization, topical therapies, or other modern methods of lesion removal, depending on the extent and location.
The appropriate treatment is always determined after a personalized urological assessment and a complete diagnostic evaluation.
Penile Cancer
Penile cancer is a rare but serious malignancy, which has a much better prognosis when diagnosed at an early stage.
Symptoms
It may present as an ulcer, persistent sore, swelling, bleeding, or change in the color and texture of the penile skin.
Diagnosis
Diagnosis is based on clinical examination and confirmed by biopsy of the lesion, followed by imaging studies for staging of the disease.
Treatment
Treatment is individualized according to the stage of the disease and may include surgical management, as well as adjuvant oncological therapies when required.
The appropriate treatment is always determined after a personalized urological assessment and a complete diagnostic evaluation.
Short frenulum of the penis
The short frenulum is an anatomical peculiarity that limits the mobility of the foreskin and can cause discomfort during sexual intercourse.
Symptoms
It is characterized by pain during erection, difficulty in uncovering the glans, and minor injuries - bleeding during sexual activity.
Diagnosis
Diagnosis is easily made through a clinical urological examination without the need for special tests.
Treatment
Definitive treatment is performed through a short surgical procedure of frenulum incision or plastic reconstruction.
The appropriate treatment is always determined after a personalized urological assessment and a complete diagnostic evaluation.
Phimosis
Phimosis is characterized by the inability to fully expose the glans due to tightness of the foreskin and can occur in children or adults.
Symptoms
Difficulty in maintaining hygiene of the area, pain during erection, recurrent inflammations, or difficulty during urination.
Diagnosis
Diagnosis is made through clinical examination, during which the degree of constriction and possible complications are evaluated.
Treatment
Treatment depends on the severity of the condition and may include conservative management or surgical circumcision.
The appropriate treatment is always determined after a personalized urological assessment and a complete diagnostic evaluation.
Paraphimosis
Paraphimosis is an urgent urological condition in which the skin tightens like a ring and cuts off blood flow, resulting in severe swelling of the glans and intense pain.
Symptoms
Severe pain, swelling of the glans, and difficulty in repositioning the foreskin.
Diagnosis
Diagnosis is based on the clinical presentation and requires immediate urological assessment.
Treatment
Treatment includes immediate reduction of paraphimosis or surgical correction when deemed necessary.
The appropriate treatment is always determined after a personalized urological assessment and a complete diagnostic evaluation.
Penile Curvature (Peyronie's Disease)
Peyronie's disease causes the development of fibrous tissue in the penis, leading to curvature during erection and potential difficulty in sexual function.
Symptoms
Curvature of the penis, pain during erection, palpable hardness, and difficulty or inability to complete sexual intercourse.
Diagnosis
Diagnosis is made through urological examination and, when necessary, supplemented with penile ultrasound.
Treatment
Management can be conservative in the early stages or surgical in cases of significant deformity or functional impairment.
The appropriate treatment is always determined after a personalized urological assessment and a complete diagnostic evaluation.
Priapism
Priapism is the prolonged erection that is not related to sexual arousal and constitutes a urological emergency.
Symptoms
Prolonged, usually painful erection lasting more than four hours, which does not subside naturally.
Diagnosis
Diagnosis is based on the clinical presentation and requires immediate urological assessment to determine the type of priapism.
Treatment
Immediate treatment is necessary and may include blood drainage, medication, or surgical intervention.
The appropriate treatment is always determined after a personalized urological assessment and a complete diagnostic evaluation.
Testicular Cancer
Testicular cancer primarily occurs in younger ages and has very high cure rates when diagnosed early.
Symptoms
Painless swelling or hardness in the testicle, a feeling of heaviness in the scrotum, or mild pain in the area.
Diagnosis
Diagnosis is made through blood tumor markers and imaging for staging.
Treatment
The primary treatment is surgical removal of the affected testicle, while depending on the stage, additional oncological treatment may follow.
The appropriate treatment is always determined after a personalized urological assessment and a complete diagnostic evaluation.
Orchitis and Epididymitis
Orchitis and epididymitis is inflammation of the testicle and epididymis, usually of bacterial origin, requiring timely treatment.
Symptoms
Severe pain, swelling, and redness of the scrotum, fever, and discomfort during urination.
Diagnosis
Diagnosis is based on clinical examination, laboratory tests, and scrotal ultrasound.
Treatment
Management includes antibiotic therapy, anti-inflammatory drugs, rest, and monitoring until the infection fully resolves.
The appropriate treatment is always determined after a personalized urological assessment and a complete diagnostic evaluation.
Testicular Torsion
Testicular torsion is one of the most urgent urological conditions, as blood flow to the testicle is abruptly interrupted.
Symptoms
Sudden and severe pain in one testicle, swelling and redness of the scrotum, change in the position of the testicle, nausea, and tendency to vomit.
Diagnosis
Diagnosis is mainly based on the clinical presentation and is confirmed, when there is time, with Doppler ultrasound.
Treatment
Immediate surgical repair (orchidopexy) is necessary to be performed within a few hours to save the testicle.
The appropriate treatment is always determined after a personalized urological assessment and a complete diagnostic evaluation.
Epididymal and Spermatic Cord Cysts
They are harmless and benign cystic formations that usually do not affect fertility.
Symptoms
In most cases, they are asymptomatic, while larger cysts may cause a feeling of heaviness or mild discomfort.
Diagnosis
Diagnosis is made through clinical examination and scrotal ultrasound.
Treatment
Most cysts are monitored, while surgical removal is recommended when they cause significant symptoms or increase in size.
The appropriate treatment is always determined after a personalized urological assessment and a complete diagnostic evaluation.
Hydrocele
A hydrocele is a collection of fluid around the testicle, causing painless enlargement of the scrotum.
Symptoms
Swelling of the scrotum, a feeling of heaviness and in larger hydroceles, discomfort during daily activities.
Diagnosis
Diagnosis is made through clinical examination and confirmed with ultrasound.
Treatment
Surgical repair is recommended when the hydrocele is large, symptomatic, or affects quality of life.
The appropriate treatment is always determined after a personalized urological assessment and a complete diagnostic evaluation.
Fournier's Gangrene
Fournier's gangrene is a rare but particularly severe infection of the soft tissues of the genital area.
Symptoms
Severe pain, swelling, redness, fever, and rapid deterioration of the patient's general condition.
Diagnosis
Diagnosis is based on the clinical presentation and is accompanied by immediate laboratory and imaging tests.
Treatment
Requires urgent hospitalization, intravenous antibiotic therapy, and immediate surgical removal of the affected tissues to effectively manage the infection.
The appropriate treatment is always determined after a personalized urological assessment and a complete diagnostic evaluation.
