Abstract

Background: The knowledge of the incidence of congenital anomalies is important for planning health services in our country. It helps in planning the budget as well as measures for the management and the prevention of the disorders. It also helps to establish a program raising awareness of urogenital anomalies and their management.
Objective: The aim of this study is to evaluate the normal anthropometric value of the normal penis and to detect the prevalence and impact of external genitourinary anomalies among 3000 Egyptian children attending for nonmedical circumcision.
Patients and Methods: The prospective multi centric study was done on 3000 male babies coming for routine circumcision in an outpatient clinic in Al Azhar university hospitals in the period from 2018 to 2021. All babies were examined and evaluated for the genitourinary parameters.
Results: the study suggests normal anthropometric values of SPL , AGD, preputial length, meatal diameter according to age. The incidence of urogenital anomalies among studied children is about 18.4%.
Conclusion: This study gives value reference and percentile curves for stretched penile length (SPL) , AGD, Preputial length, meatal diameter and glans closure length in healthy Egyptian males from the age of one day to 10 years
