Cardiac catheterization is an invasive diagnostic technique used to identify and evaluate structural and functional diseases of the heart and major blood vessels. This technique diagnoses congenital heart disease, coronary artery disease, valvular heart disease, and coronary spasms and assesses ventricular function. It helps guide treatment decisions, including the need for revascularization procedures like percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and...

Men's health issues are increasingly recognized as significant, with several conditions posing common threats. Among these, testicular cancer is especially prevalent in younger men, particularly those aged 20 to 35 years. The disease often manifests as a painless mass in the testicles, sometimes accompanied by a sensation of heaviness or a dull ache.

Penile augmentation surgery can lead to severe complications like infection and necrosis, requiring extensive treatment. Many seeking this cosmetic procedure may benefit more from psychological support for body dysmorphic disorder.

Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Plastic Surgery
  • Psychiatry

Background:

  • Cosmetic penile surgery is a controversial procedure often sought by individuals with normal penile size.
  • Patients may exhibit body dysmorphic disorder (BDD), avoidance behaviors, and erectile dysfunction.

Observation:

  • A case report details a 62-year-old male experiencing infection and penile skin necrosis post-augmentation surgery in Turkey.
  • Treatment involved antibiotics, surgical debridement, and a skin graft.

Findings:

  • Penile augmentation surgery carries significant risks, including infection, necrosis, and poor cosmetic outcomes.
  • Complications necessitate complex medical and surgical interventions.

Implications:
