耳鏡を用いた尿道末梢部の観察

Abstract

Distal urethra, male and female, was inspected with an otoscope. Accompanying specula are just adequate to be inserted in to the urethral meatus of various sizes. Urethra was not inflated by air this time. Findings such as hyperemia, injection and post-diverticulectomy state could be observed. The technique is so simple that the distal urethra might be routinely examined whenever necessary and would be particularly useful for observation of caruncle, condyloma acuminata or papilloma of the intra urethral form. Further trial of inflating the urethra by air prior to urethroscopy is a concern of the authors.
