In the majority of cases delayed puberty is due to:
a. a disruption in the hypothalamus.
b. a disruption of the pituitary.
c. slow maturation.
d. ambiguity in sex determination. ...... ANSWER ....... c.
slow maturation
RATIONALE: In about 95% of cases, delayed puberty is a
normal physiologic event. Hormonal levels are normal, the
hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis is intact, and
maturation is happening slowly. Only about 5% of the
occurrences of delayed puberty are due to a disruption in
the hypothalamus or the pituitary. Ambiguity in sex

determination could play a role in delayed puberty, but this
occurrence is rare.
A 30-year-old presents with penile tenderness and
discharge while the physical examination reveals that his
foreskin cannot be retracted back over the glans penis. This
assessment data is consistent with what condition?
a. Paraphimosis
b. Phimosis
c. Peyronie disease
d. Priapism ...... ANSWER ....... b. Phimosis
RATIONALE: Phimosis is a condition in which the foreskin
cannot be retracted back over the glans. Paraphimosis is the
opposite: the foreskin is retracted and cannot be moved
forward (reduced) to cover the glans. Peyronie disease is a
fibrotic condition that causes lateral curvature of the penis
during erection. Priapism is a prolonged erection.
A 38-year-old presents reporting difficulty having sexual
intercourse because his penis curves during erection. What
term describes this condition?
a. Phimosis
b. Cryptorchidism

c. Paraphimosis
d. Peyronie disease ...... ANSWER ....... d. Peyronie
disease
RATIONALE: Peyronie disease is a fibrotic condition that
causes lateral curvature of the penis during erection.
Phimosis is a condition in which the foreskin cannot be
retracted back over the glans. Cryptorchidism is a condition
of testicular maldescent. Paraphimosis is the opposite: the
foreskin is retracted and cannot be moved forward
(reduced) to cover the glans.
_____ is an inflammation of the glans penis.
a. Phimosis
b. Balanitis
c. Priapism
d. Hydrocele ...... ANSWER ....... b. Balanitis
RATIONALE: Balanitis is an inflammation of the glans penis.
Phimosis is a condition in which the foreskin cannot be
retracted back over the glans. Priapism is a prolonged
erection. A hydrocele is a collection of fluid within the tunica
vaginalis.
Cryptorchidism can be defined as:
