Penile Anthropometry of Healthy Turkish Children Aged One to Twenty-Four Months

Abstract

Objectives: To establish a normal range of penile anthropometric parameters of infants younger than two years based on their age.

Materials and Methods: A total of 573 infants younger than two years were included in our study. Penile length and circumference were measured and the percentiles were established according to infants age. Variations of penile anthropometry in relation to age and another anthropometric parameters were evaluated using multiple linear regression models.

Results: The mean stretched penile length ± SD and mean penile circumference ± SD of all infants aged 1to 24 months were 38.82 ± 8.38 and 14.81 ± 3.09 mm respectively. Stretched penile length and circumference were affected by age, body weight and length (p=0.001).

Conclusion: This study provides reference values of stretched penile lengths and circumference for Turkish infants younger than 24 months. Our findings suggest that penile measurement abnormalities during routine healthy children examination may be a clue helping in detecting congenital or endocrine disorders.
