Ischemia of the glans penis is a rare postcircumcision complication. We describe a four-year-old boy developing ischemia of the glans penis 48 h after circumcision. The ischemia completely resolved following treatment with iv pentoxifylline (PTX) for six days, and the patient was discharged without any problems. PTX treatment should be kept in mind as an alternative treatment modality in ischemia of the glans penis which is a serious potential post-circumcision complication.
阴茎头缺血是一种罕见的包皮环切术后并发症。我们描述了一名4岁男孩在包皮环切术后48小时出现阴茎头缺血。经静脉注射己酮可可碱(PTX)治疗6天后,缺血完全缓解,患者顺利出院。对于阴茎头缺血这种严重的潜在包皮环切术后并发症,应考虑将PTX治疗作为一种替代治疗方式。
