Dr. Sandip Gaikwad, Prof. Dr Rashmi Kale

Abstract :

 When the orifice of the prepuce (foreskin) is too small to permits its normal

retraction over the glans penis the condition is called as Phimosis. The clinical features are

difficulty  in  micturition,  thin  stream  while  micturition,  prepuce  balloon  out  in  children

causing pain and purulent discharge coming through prepusal orifice in adult1.  Phimosis can be secondary to recurrent balanoposthitis which is common cause in dibetes.2 Circumcision is

the   treatment   of   choice   in   phimosis   because   it   reduces   the   risk   of   HIV   infection,

heterosexually acquired  sexually transmitted infection, genital herpes, HPV, tricomoniasis.3   

When phimosis is secondary to balanoposthitis in diabetic patient with lichen planus disease,

it turns out to be rarest one.  Representing a same case of phimosis with lichen planus disease

in old age male diabetic patient
