Circumcision has been popularly performed with mechanical device such as Gomco clamp, Plastibell device and other modified device. We experienced a case of denudation of entire penile epithelium and abnormal curvature during erection after circumcision using self-circumcision device (GM sense) at home. So we report with a brief review of literature.

PURPOSE: Circumcision is widely practiced in Korea. Circumcision has been popularly performed with mechanical devices such as the Gomco clamp, the Plastibell device and other modified devices. We investigate the effect of using a new device (the circumcision clamp). MATERIALS AND METHODS: We conducted a retrospective study between December 2003 and February 2004 on 75 patients who wanted circumcision. 25 patients were operated on by performing conventional circumcision, and 50 patients were operated on by using the circumcision clamp. RESULTS: The mean operation time for the new device group was shorter than that for the conventional circumcision group (p<0.05). No significant difference of complications was noted between the conventional circumcision group and the circumcision clamp group. CONCLUSIONS: The new method with using the circumcision clamp has a benefit as it is designed to expose the glans and it saves operating time.

We experienced a rare case of sparganosis developed in the left dorsum of penile shaft. The patient, a 72 year-old, had nontender, mobile thread-like linear subcutaneous palpable mass on the left dorsal aspect of penile shaft for l week. He had experience of intaking non- boiling water intermittently since 8 years ago. During circumcision, the mass which was a Whitish yellow colored parasite measuring about 21cm in length, 0.4cm in width, 0.2cm in Thickness could be extracted.

The beginning of the circumcision was originated from the rite of the ancient Israel historically. The circumcision has performed for the purpose of penile hygiene and for the treatment of phimosis, paraphimosis, balancposthitis and so on. In the way of the circumcision the conventional circumcision was mostly used, but we used Gomco clamp and the incision was made 3mm away from the metal edge of the instrument. And the merits in the use of the instruments were as follows: 1) the short time operation, 2) safety and cosmetically satisfactory performance without need of assistant for the procedure, 3) no bleeding on operation.

PURPOSE: To determine the uroflow rates of normal Korean pediatric male, uroflowmetry was peformed. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of the 237 normal children who ranged in age from 2 to 14 years(mean: 7.2+/-2.1years)was available for this study. Uroflow 1 data(peak and average flow) were plotted in volume-related nomograms in 3 different age groups : 2 to 4, 5 to7 and 8 to 14 years old. RESULTS: The mean peak flow(10.3+/-3.7, 12.2+/-4.9 and 14.3+/-5.2m1/sec) and average flow(6.4+/-2.6, 7.1)3.0 and 8.3+/-3.4m1/sec) were increased significantly with increasing age(p<0.05). In a same voided volume the peak and average flow rates were not increased significantly with increasing age but, in a same age group they were significantly increased according to the volume voided (p<0.05). Peak and average flow rates in the circumcision group(13.7+/-6.7, 8.3+/-4.7m1/sec) was not significantly different from non-circumcision group(10.9+/-5.0, 16.1+/-3.0ml/sec). CONCLUSIONS: These uroflow rate nomograms will be useful for the assessment of voiding action related to the voided volume and age in Korean pediatric males.

Penile strangulation developed by wearing metallic or non-metallic objects is unusual but potentially serious. We report a case of 33-year-old man who presented with penile strangulation after applying the device for self-circumcision. The device was removed and after debridement of the infected necrotic tissues and antibiotic therapy, conventional circumcision was performed. It is stressed that circumcision should be performed by urologists.

A concealed penis is a normally developed penis that becomes camouflaged by the suprapubic fat pad. This anomally can be congenital or iatrogenic following circumcision. A special variety of this disease is a retractile concealed penis with dysgenetic band of dartos fascia which produce recurrence not infrequently after operative correction by conventional method. We herein report 2 cases of concealed penis of which one case was a recurrent one and another was a case of severe degree with concomittent obesity where a new method for operative correction was applied.
