Abstract
An 11-year-old boy visited our clinic complaining of recurrent epididymitis for 2 years. No abnormal findings were found in urine and blood sampling tests, ultrasonography of the urinary tracts or in a pelvic magnetic resonance imaging examination. Induration of the left epididymal tail, webbed penis and true phimosis were observed. Neither hypospadias nor chordee were identified, thus the diagnosis of "webbed penis without chordee" was made. The operation for webbed penis by transverse incision followed by longitudinal suture and dorsal incision for true phimosis was performed successfully. The postoperative course was uneventful and no recurrence of epididymitis has occurred.Entities:
