Clinical manifestations of penile curvature deformity

Nature is amazing. When organisms were created, they were divided into male and female! The body structures of different genders are also very different! Some gynecological diseases are more common in women, but men are also more likely to suffer from some male diseases! Do you know that there is a disease called penile curvature in men? If you don’t know it yet, you can learn more about it!

Penile malformation is caused by abnormal development of the genital tubercle and the urogenital sinus that forms the vulva during embryonic development. Currently, there is no satisfactory drug or surgical treatment that can make the penis have perfect functions. The penis is a man's sexual organ. Its shape, size and function are directly related to a man's self-esteem and fertility. If penile malformation is not treated, it will affect future sexual function and fertility.

Cause 1. Congenital disease. If a man has epispadias or hypospadias, it is also a manifestation of penile deformity. Epispadias or hypospadias is often accompanied by shortening and lack of elasticity of the fascia around the urethra. Therefore, the penis will bend upward or downward at ordinary times, and the bend is more obvious after erection.

2. The penis is deformed, with one side of the corpus cavernosum being thicker and the other side being thinner. When erect, the penis will bend toward the thinner side, most commonly to the left.

3. Penile trauma, surgery and other external injuries can cause damage to the tunica albuginea of ​​the corpus cavernosum. If it is not repaired in time or secondary infection occurs, it can also cause penile curvature.

Clinical manifestations Clinically, the types of penile malformations can be divided into the following categories:

1. Penile dysplasia

It may be associated with other genitourinary and lower intestinal abnormalities. Penile dysplasia is caused by a disorder in the embryonic development of the external genitalia.

2. Penis behind scrotum

The presentation may initially be very similar to penile dysplasia, which is less common.

3. Double Penis

Bipenis is also a rare abnormality. Typically, only one penis is functional and has a urethra. Therefore, appropriate surgical correction can only be performed after the urethral opening is identified.

4. Hypospadias

This disease is relatively common, and the reasons may be related to delayed or insufficient androgen secretion from the fetal testicles, insensitivity of the target organs to androgen effects, and the use of progesterone drugs or estrogens during fetal sexual development. If moderate or severe hypospadias is not treated, the patient's sexual function and sexual behavior may be affected.

5. Epispadias

Epispadias is relatively rare and is characterized by the absence of the upper wall of the urethra, that is, the urethra opens on the dorsal surface of the penis. It can occur alone or in combination with other deformities. In mild cases, only the glans penis splits into a groove-like shape, the penis is shorter, the glans penis is flat, and the foreskin separates on the dorsal side, which is the glans type. If the grooved urethra runs from the dorsal root of the penis to the top of the penis, it is the penis type. In severe cases, there may also be pubic separation, abnormal bladder sphincter, urinary incontinence, and often difficulty in sexual intercourse or inability to have sexual intercourse, thus losing reproductive function.

Therefore, for the happiness of your family and your future children, you must not ignore the various problems of your body! Maybe you think it is not a disease, but after a long time you find that the problem has become bigger, and then it may be very difficult to treat the disease easily, and you will suffer more at that time!
