Preputial calculus: a case report.

D J Ellis, A L Siegel, J S Elder

    The Journal of Urology
    |August 1, 1986
    PubMed
    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    A postoperative preputial calculus developed in a child with epispadias. This condition can arise from phimosis and urinary stasis within the subpreputial space.

    Area of Science:

    • Urology
    • Pediatric Surgery

    Background:

    • Epispadias is a congenital anomaly affecting the urinary tract.
    • Postoperative complications can arise in pediatric urological cases.

    Observation:

    • A case of preputial calculus formation was observed in a child following surgery for epispadias.
    • The calculus developed within the subpreputial space.

    Findings:

    • The subpreputial space, when inert, can become calculogenic.
    • Phimosis and urinary stasis are identified as contributing factors to calculus development.
    • Pathophysiological mechanisms underlying calculus formation in this context were analyzed.

    Implications:

    • This finding highlights a potential complication in pediatric epispadias repair.
  • Understanding the role of phimosis and urinary stasis is crucial for prevention.
  • Further research into subpreputial calculus formation is warranted.
