Traumatic penile injury can be due to multiple factors. Penile fracture, penile amputation, penetrating penile injuries, and penile soft tissue injuries are considered urologic emergencies and typically require surgical intervention. The goals of treatment for penile trauma are universal: preservation of penile length, erectile function, and maintenance of the ability to void while standing. Traumatic injury to the penis may concomitantly involve the urethra.[1, 2] Urethral injury and repair is beyond the scope of this article but details can be found in Urethral Trauma. Penile fracture Penile fracture is the traumatic rupture of the corpus cavernosum. Traumatic rupture of the penis is relatively uncommon and is considered a urologic emergency.[3] Sudden blunt trauma or abrupt lateral bending of the penis in an erect state can break the markedly thinned and stiff tunica albuginea, resulting in a fractured penis. One or both corpora may be involved, and concomitant injury to the penile urethra may occur. Urethral trauma is more common when both corpora cavernosa are injured.[4] Penile rupture can usually be diagnosed based solely on history and physical examination findings; however, in equivocal cases, diagnostic cavernosography or MRI should be performed. Concomitant urethral injury must be considered; therefore, preoperative retrograde urethrographic studies should generally be performed. See the images below.
Glomus tumors are rare soft tissue neoplasms that typically present in adults (ages 20-40 years) as small, blue-red papules or nodules of the distal extremities, with most cases involving subungual sites. These tumors are typically painful, often causing paroxysmal pain in response to temperature changes or pressure. Glomus tumors are thought to arise from the glomus body, a thermoregulatory shunt concentrated in the fingers and toes. Most lesions are solitary and localized to cutaneous sites; however, generalized glomuvenous malformations, or multiple glomangiomas, have also been described, and may have extracutaneous involvement.
Low potassium (hypokalemia) refers to a lower than normal potassium level in your bloodstream. Potassium is a chemical (electrolyte) that is critical to the proper functioning of nerve and muscles cells, particularly heart muscle cells. Normally, your blood potassium level is 3.6 to 5.2 millimoles per liter (mmol/L). A very low potassium level (less than 2.5 mmol/L) can be life-threatening and requires urgent medical attention.
Epididymitis is infection or less frequently, inflammation of the epididymis (the coiled tube on the back of the testicle).

Pigmentflecken, Vitiligo Komplett Geheilt, Pigmentflecken Oberlippe, Vitiligo Heilung, Vitiligo--- http://vitiligo-heilung.info-pro.co/ --- Was ist Vitiligo? Vitiligo ist ein medizinischer Zustand, der die Haut befällt. Die Haut entwickelt dabei an unterschiedlichen Körperstellen nach und nach weiße Flecken, weshalb die Hautstörung im Deutschen auch als "Weißfleckenkrankheit" bekannt ist. Vitiligo macht keine Unterschiede bei Geschlecht oder Rasse und kann jeden befallen. Es wird geschätzt, dass gegenwärtig mehr als 100 Millionen Menschen weltweit in mehr oder minderem starken Maße an Vitiligo leiden. In den Vereinigten Staaten ist die Prävalenzrate etwa 1 % der Bevölkerung; Europa weist ähnliche Raten auf. Was verursacht den Zustand? Vitiligo tritt auf, wenn die Melanozyten in der Haut aus irgendeinem Grund zerstört werden oder ihre Funktion einstellen. Als Melanozyten bezeichnet man jene Hautzellen, die für die Hautfarbe verantwortlich sind. Werden sie zerstört oder anderweitig kompromittiert, stellen produzieren sie kein Melanin mehr, das Hautpigment. Das führt dann zu weißen Hautflecken. Es gibt verschiedene Faktoren, welche die Melanozyten zerstören oder beeinträchtigen können. Dennoch bleibt die Ursache bei den meisten Fällen von Vitiligo ungeklärt. Es wird außerdem angenommen, dass es sich bei Vitiligo um eine Autoimmunerkrankung handelt, welche das Immunsystem die Melanozyten angreifen lässt. Vitiligo kann zudem das Resultat einer Melanozytenstörung sein, welche diese Zellen praktisch veranlasst, "Sebstmord" zu begehen. Laut mancher Forscher kann Vitiligo aber auch durch chronischen Stress und Sonnenbrand hervorgerufen werden. Was sind die Symptome? Das offensichtlichste Symptom von Vitiligo sind die weißen Hautflecken, die sich im Laufe der Zeit vergrößern und auch weiter ausbreiten können. Die Rate, mit der die Hautstörung voranschreitet, unterscheidet sich dabei von Patient zu Patient.
