Congenital lymphedema of the external genitalia is a rare, disfiguring disorder. We describe here a case of a 3-year-old male with primary foreskin lymphedema persisting since birth. A compact, heterogenous swelling of the foreskin's distal third was observed, inhibiting preputial retraction (phimosis).

No other clinical symptoms or physical findings were observed at admission. An elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) and a small calcified nodule in chest CT were the only abnormal findings.

Method: We aimed to determine the prevalence of frailty in COPD patients and to identify the associated risk factors. Two hundred fifty-seven COPD patients enrolled from primary care in Greece between 2015 and 2016.
Article Synopsis
- Sperm cell granuloma, known as epididymitis nodosa, is a condition that can happen after injury, inflammation, or a vasectomy, and it affects the epididymis (a part of the male reproductive system).
- A 13-year-old boy was treated for a related issue called epididymo-orchitis, but after his symptoms got worse, he needed surgery.
- The surgery revealed damage and dead tissue in the testicle, and doctors found that epididymitis nodosa was the cause, showing that this condition should be checked for in boys with testicle swelling when other treatments don’t work.
