Background: Treatment for distal hypospadias is a controversy among the experts. Some argue that it does not require any surgery if it does not interfere with the patient's urinary and sexuality. Purpose: This study aimed to determine whether patients with distal hypospadias need treated or untreated.Methods: The method used is a case study. Participants in this study is a 10-year-old male with distal hypospadias—location of the study in Purwokerto city, Banyumas district, Central Java. Participants were interviewed and physically examined by a doctor and nurse. The results of interviews and physical examinations are recorded and analyzed based on a literature review to determine the decision, treatment, or untreated. Results: A 10-year-old patient with hypospadias and the pediatric urologist do not give surgery advice, because the urethral opening is still close to the glans penis, and there are no symptoms of urinary dysfunction. Conclusion: Patients with distal hypospadias may be untreated as long as they do not interfere with urinary function

SummaryIntroduction: The endovenous thermal ablation of the great saphenous vein due to varicosis changes the blood circulation in the groin. This could affect the venous drainage of the penis, especially the drainage of the corpus spongiosum over the external pudendal vein. There are a few cases in our clinic until now which had an enhanced swelling of the glans penis beside an erection.Objective: Is the enhancement of penile swelling caused by the targeted thermal ablation of the GSV without affecting the saphenofemoral tributaries in the groin?Material and Methods: To verify this enhanced swelling of the glans penis and change in the erectile function we want to ask 56 patients with a modified IIEF questionnaire.The IIEF is a validated questionnaire with a additional question for the swelling of the glans. We check the reliability of the additional question with 16 healthy males.Possible results: Hypothesis 1 (H+): There is an improvement of the erectile function. Hypothesis 2 (H-): There is a decrease of the erectile function. Hypothesis 3 (H0): There is no change of the erectile function. Schedule: 1.Preliminary assessment: Sept. 2014: ethical approval, Reliability of the additional question. 2. Main assessment: Oct. 2014 to May 2016. 3. Analysis of the data: May 2016 to Aug. 2016 4. Report of data: August 2016.

Monotremes diverged from therian mammal ancestors approximately 184 million years ago and have a number of novel reproductive characteristics. One in particular is their penile morphology. There are differences between echidna and platypus phalluses, but both are somewhat similar in structure to the reptilian phallus. The echidna penis consists of 4 rosette glans, each of which contains a termination of the quadrifurcate urethra, but it appears that only 2 of the 4 glans become erect at any one time. Despite this, only a few historical references describe the structure of the echidna penis and none provides an explanation for the mechanisms of unilateral ejaculation. This study confirmed that the echidna penis contains many of the same overall structures and morphology as other mammalian penises and a number of features homologous with reptiles. The corpus cavernosum is well supplied with blood, extends up to the base of the glans penis and is primarily responsible for erection. However, the echidna possesses 2 distinct corpora spongiosa separated by a septum, each of which surround the urethra only distal to the initial urethral bifurcation in the glans penis. Together with the bifurcation of the main penile artery, this provides a mechanism by which blood flow could be directed to only one corpus spongiosum at a time to maintain an open urethra that supplies 2 of the 4 glans to facilitate unilateral ejaculation.
