Özet

Amaç: Penis cerrahisi ve anestezi ile ilgili muhtemel komplikasyonlar nedeniyle fimozisin geleneksel tedavisi sünnete alternatif olarak son yıllarda çeşitli tedavi yöntemleri geliştirilmiş ve başarılı sonuçlar bildirilmiştir. Bu çalışmada fimozis tedavisinde prepisyuma topikal kortikosteroid içeren krem uygulanmasının etkinliği araştırıldı. Hastalar ve Yöntem: Bu çalışma Ocak 2003 – Haziran 2004 arasında fizik muayenesinde şiddetli fimozis saptanan 2-8 yaş arası 53 erkek çocuk arasında yapıldı. Hastalardan rastgele yöntemle 36’sından çalışma grubu, 17’sinden kontrol grubu oluşturuldu. Çalışma grubuna alınan hastaların prepisyumuna günde iki kez, 6 hafta süreyle %0.05’lik beklometasone dipropionate uygulandı. Kontrol grubuna alınan hastaların prepisyumuna lokal hijyen ve zorlamadan geri çekilebilme eksersizi yaptırıldı. Tedavi bitiminde tedaviye yanıt değerlendirildi. Bulgular: Çalışma grubunu oluşturan 36 hastanın 21’inde(%58.3) prepisyumda tam geri çekilebilme, 9’unda(%25) kısmi geri çekilebilme sonucu alındı. Hastaların 6’sında(%16.6) uygulanan tedaviye yanıt alınamadı. Kontrol grubunu oluşturan 17 hastadan 1’inde(%5.9) tam geri çekilebilme, 5’inde(%29.4) kısmi geri çekilebilme sonucu alındı. 11’inde(%64.7) yanıt alınamadı. Gruplar tedaviye yanıt açısından karşılaştırıldıklarında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı ölçüde farklılık saptandı (p
