Summary[edit]
| Summary | |
|---|---|
| Description | Fig 1. Penis with tight phimotic ring making it difficult to retract the foreskin. Fig 2. Foreskin retracted under anaesthetic with the phimotic ring or stenosis constricting the shaft of the penis and creating a “waist.” Only one incision is shown in the diagram; if two or more such incisions are made this will prevent a V-shaped indentation at the opening of the foreskin when the penis is not erect. Fig 3. Incision closed laterally. Fig 4. Penis with the foreskin replaced over the head. The opening of the foreskin is now normally wide enough for the foreskin to be easily retracted. The foreskin is also slightly shorter (by the length of the longitudinal incisions which are now closed transversely) because the widening of the phimotic ring takes up some foreskin length.
