NSG 3280 Final Exam Questions And
Correct Answers (Verified Answers) 2026
Neisseria gonorrhea (Gonorrhea)- Pathogenesis:
-Most common reason for pelvic inflammatory disease (PID)
-Can cause sterility
-Incubation: 3-6 days
-Can be spread through lymphatic system
Chlamydia trachomatis (Chlamydia)
-Causes epididymitis
-Congenital – transmission of chlamydia during birth may result in infection in the eyes of the
newborn (Ophthalmia neonatorum)- erythromycin eye drops for treatment.
Syphilis- Pathophysiology:
-Bacterium (Treponema pallidum)
Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) (genital warts)
-Long Incubation 1-20 months
-Persistent infections can lead to cervical cancer
Epididymitis (Inflammation of the testis)-Diagnosis:
Urine culture
Fournier Gangrene-Manifestations:
Perirectal abscess (swelling of scrotum)
Fournier Gangrene
-Gangrenous necrosis of scrotum
-Alcoholism is risk factor
Fournier Gangrene- Treatment:
Swift incsion or drainage of absess
, Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH)
Does not have an etiology in the renal system or changes in the blood flow from the renal
system (unknown cause)
Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH)-Manifestations:
-Incomplete bladder emptying
-Frequency
-urgency
-increased time trying to urinate
-urinary retention
Prostatitis
Most common Bacteria: E.coli
Urethral Strictures-Diagnostic Testing:
Cystoscopy – camera up to bladder or retrograde urethrography
Erectile Dysfunction
Pituitary dysfunction resulting in little or no secretion of LH may result in decreased secretion of
testosterone
Neoplasms of the Penis- Pathophysiology
-Phimosis of foreskin accompanied by chronic inflammation (posthitis) is thought to be a factor
-Phimosis: tight foreskin can’t be pulled back over penis (infection, swelling, DM)
Neoplasms of the Penis- Etiology
Strong association between being born with cryptorchidism (testicle fails to descend) and
developing testicular cancer
Neoplasms of the Penis- Manifestations
Late adolescent – early adult (20-34)
Cardinal ligaments
Support for the uterus and upper part of vagina
Uterine Prolapse
