    WOMAN CONSCIOUS DURING SURGERY AFTER ANESTHESIA MISHAP: ‘THE NIGHTMARES HAVE BEEN HORRENDOUS’ The condition typically causes blood clots, skin ulcers, and can also lead to serious, potentially deadly infections such as gangrene, or the death of tissue [foxnews.com]

    GETTY/BMJ HEALTH NIGHTMARE: A scan (right) shows how the patient's penis began to rot away (Pic: GETTY/BMJ) Ten days after his surgery, the patient was admitted to King George’s Medical University Hospital. [dailystar.co.uk]

  • Arm Pain

    Case A 65-year-old man presented with right arm pain after falling over. He had end-stage renal disease secondary to type II diabetes mellitus and had required haemodialysis for 1 year. [academic.oup.com]

  • Urge Urinary Incontinence

    An elderly diabetic man with a 67 g prostate developed a moderate degree of stress urinary incontinence along with urge urinary incontinence after transurethral resection of the prostate. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

    He developed right hemiparesis and intractable urge urinary incontinence. After stabilization, he was put on anticoagulants and was discharged with a condom catheter. [urotoday.com]

  • Soft Tissue Calcification

    There is radiological evidence of blood vessel and soft tissue calcification. Predisposing factors are obesity and diabetes. It is rarely encountered by a urologist and closely resembles penile gangrene. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Eikenella

    Cases of monomicrobial Eikenella corrodens infection from a human bite have been found to cause a locally destructive lesion that was managed with local irrigation and broad spectrum antibiotics [6]. [hindawi.com]

  • Diffuse Vasculitis

    Secondary hyperparathyroidism may cause diffuse vasculitis and vascular calcification, which can lead to widespread ischemic necrosis and gangrene. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Penile entrapment and subsequent strangulation is a serious injury that requires a prompt treatment to avoid gangrene. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Penile Gangrene due to Strangulation by a Metallic Nut: A Case Report Abstract BACKGROUND: Penile entrapment and subsequent strangulation is a serious injury that requires a prompt treatment to avoid gangrene. [ajol.info]

Comparison of the patients' ages, presentations, underlying diseases, the duration of conservative treatments, surgical options, resected penile length, and prognosis. All of the five patients underwent partial penectomy. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Penile gangrene is a manifestation of widespread vascular calcifications associated with end-stage renal disease and is a marker of poor prognosis. Keywords: Calciphylaxis, gangrene, penis How to cite this article: Agarwal MM, Singh SK, Mandal AK. [indianjurol.com]

The prognosis for recovery is good if gangrene is identified early and treated quickly. [dailymail.co.uk]

It is considered a urological emergency with a poor prognosis due to its high mortality rate (ranging 15-50% 3 ). [radiopaedia.org]

The final chapter deals with the etiology, pathology, clinical diagnosis, and treatment of priapism. This book is a valuable resource for physicians. [books.google.it]

The etiologies could be infectious, traumatic, or vasculogenic. The treatment algorithm is controversial because of limited case numbers. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

The main etiological factors were urethral stricture in 8 (50%) patients, associated with diabetes mellitus in 2 (13%), impacted urethral calculus in 3 (19%), circumcision in 2 (13%), priapism in sickle cell disease in 2 (13%) and trauma in 1 (6%). [ajol.info]

We concluded that this was a rare etiology of Fournier's gangrene and examined the complications of pelvic bone fracture in this context. Keywords: Etiology, foam, Fournier's gangrene, hematoma, osteomyelitis How to cite this article: Fang CL. [e-fjs.org]

Symptoms and Pathophysiology The etiology of, and predisposing factors for, FG provide a favorable environment for infection. [uspharmacist.com]

Pathophysiology The following are pathognomonic findings of Fournier gangrene upon pathologic evaluation of the involved tissue: Necrosis of the superficial and deep fascial planes, Fibrinoid coagulation of the nutrient arterioles, Polymorphonuclear cell [intechopen.com]

Abstract Despite advances in the evaluation, treatment, and pathophysiological understanding of necrotizing soft-tissue infections, Fournier's gangrene remains a life-threatening urological emergency. [nature.com]

In published reports, the factors affecting survival or death from FG were not clearly identified until the study of Laor and colleagues in 1995 (2), in which measurable pathophysiologic data between survivors and non survivors of FG were compared. [latunisiemedicale.com]

We report a case of mycotic penile gangrene in a diabetic child to highlight its potentially preventable disastrous outcome. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

It is usually associated with vascular insufficiency and amputation is required to prevent spread of infection from the necrotic tissue. [irep.iium.edu.my]
