Definição
Paraphimosis is a condition caused when the foreskin of the uncircumcised penis is retracted and left behind the glans penis, leading to vascular engorgement and edema of the distal glans.[1] This condition is a medical emergency when identified acutely and requires prompt effective treatment to prevent loss of the distal glans penis.[2][3][Figure caption and citation for the preceding image starts]: Diagram illustrating paraphimosisFrom the collection of Dr Ranjiv Mathews [Citation ends].
