Summary
Introduction
Diphallia is a rare anomaly. It has a range of appearances from a small accessory penile to complete duplication.
Methods
We present a 2 year-old boy with complete penile duplication. The left penile was the largest. NMR (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance) suggested one corporal body for each penile and VCUG (Voiding Cystourethrogram) showed a normal urethra in the right penile and stricture at glandular and mid penile urethra of the left penis. A Y confluence to bulbar urethra was observed confirming only one prostate and bladder.
Results
The cystoscopy through the right penile identified the urethral confluence in the bulbar area. We performed a meatotomy in the left penile to insert the cystoscope and confirmed the blind ending urethra. We decided to remove this penile. The penile was degloved entirely and clamped and took out the corpora at the base.
Discussion
Diphallia can have three presentations: only glans duplication, bifid diphallia and complete diphallia (two corpora cavernosa and a corpus spongiosum for each penile). In our case, each penile presented only one corpora cavernosa and the decision taken was based on urethral patency.
Conclusion
The treatment should always be planned individually whereas associated anomalies with the goal of attaining satisfactory functional and cosmetic.

Introduction The bladder scanner (BS), a portable ultrasound device specialized in bladder volume measurement, has been developed and applied to clinical assessment of postvoid residual urine, which is a requisite in evaluating patients with voiding dysfunction.
However, experiences in the application of the BS to the pediatric population remain limited despite commonly encountered reluctance to catheterization. This prospective observational study aimed to evaluate the correlation and accuracy of the newly developed pediatric module of the BS (BioCon-900) in measuring bladder volume in children 0e6 years.
Materials and methods
This study included 29 patients scheduled to undergo preventive untethering for their spinal dysraphism. When they undergo cystometry for the confirmation of normal neurologic function, bladder volume was measured by BS when recorded volume infusion reached each quartile of the age-adjusted estimated bladder capacity (EBC). The difference (bias) between measured and infused volume was expressed as a percentage of EBC (%EBC). The correlation coefficient and the Bland_Altman plot were obtained to determine the discriminating power and accuracy, respectively. The acceptable limit was set as 30%EBC.
A strong correlation between the measured and infused volume (r = 0.95, P < 0.001) was found for the entire age range. This excellent correlation remained comparable between children less than three years and the older ones. Bladder volume tended to be overestimated, and the mean bias was 33 ± 22.3%EBC, and it became higher with increasing quartiles. The accuracy was acceptable in all ranges of measurement in the older group and first and second quartiles in the younger one.
We have first evaluated the potential use of BS in 0_3 years old children and compared the results with 4_6- year-old children in whom the accuracy of BS has been demonstrated. The strong point of our study was the inclusion of data spanning all quartiles of bladder volume. The use of infused volume as reference enabled us to assess the accuracy in a more precise way than the use of ultrasound. Despite the good discriminating power, the accuracy was not acceptable in higher quartiles in the younger group. If the trend of overestimation especially higher volume, could be understood prior to measurement, it would be helpful to assume the real val.
Conclusions
The children’s module in BS showed excellent discriminating power and generally acceptable accuracy in more than four-year-old children. This may lose accuracy in higher quartiles among less than three years old children.

伤口的愈合除了需要良好的环境以外,必不可少的就是需要充足的营养物质的提供。今天小编就给大家介绍一下与伤口愈合紧密相关的一些营养素(分为两次课程)。

对于每一个人来说、食物中富含营养素的多少,及其自身吸收利用的程度的高低,将决定着他本人的营养状况。目前对一个人营养状况的评价,大体上是根据我国各类人群中每日膳食营养素供给量的标准米衡量的。对符合每日供给量标准的为营养状况良好,超过的为营养过剩,不足的为营养不良。受历史条件的限制,祖国医学认为人的营养状况取决于饮食结构与进食量是否合理,合理的饮食结构能保障营养素的供给,所以营养状态良好的饮食标准应该是下面几点。
