“…The most prevalent causes of a persistent genital rash in adults and children of both sexes are psoriasis and eczema/dermatitis; lichen sclerosus is also common, especially in females. 1 Acute, recurring, and chronic candidiasis, are significant aspects of vulval dermatoses in female adults that are not observed in the non-estrogenized vulva and vagina of children, and tinea of the groin, although prevalent in males, is uncommon in children. 2 In children, genital birthmarks-especially haemangiomas-are a significant concern, but in adults, the likelihood of a resolution or diagnosis is likely to have passed long before.…”

: Skin conditions in children are impacted by their socio-economic status, environmental conditions, cultural and food habbits: To evaluate the frequency and pattern of non venereal genital dermatoses in children visiting the dermatology outpatient department at Silchar Medical College and Hospital, Silchar, a prospective research was carried out from December 2022 to December 2023: 127 children aged 1 to 18 years who had non venereal genital dermatoses verified by relevant bedside and laboratory examinations were included in the current study after providing appropriate informed permission. They were divided into four age groups: young children (ages 1-3), preschoolers (ages 3-6), students (ages 6-10), and teenagers (ages 9-18). : Of the 127 children—82 boys and 45 girls—37.77% attended school. Of the 110 children with infective dermatoses,75 percent lived in hostels; these individuals were primarily from rural areas and belonged to low (55.2%), middle (43.23%), and high (1.55%) socioeconomic groups. Bullous impetigo was the most prevalent infectious dermatosis in preschoolers, whereas genital scabies, tinea cruris, and molluscum contagiosum were the most frequent in teenagers. Of the 17 kids with non-infectious dermatoses, 55.2% come from a low-income background. 2.36% of patients had phrynoderma and nutritional deficiencies, whereas 0.79% had genital vitiligo. The additional non-infectious dermatoses that were discovered were eczema, hemangiomas, lichen planus, and lichen sclerosus. : school-going age group children are more likely to suffer from infectious dermatoses such as pyoderma, scabies, fungal infections than nutritional deficiencies. This is likely due to a combination of factors including poor health, poverty, poor personal hygiene, and a lack of access to soap and antifungals. Better nutrition and health education are recommended by our study.

The parameatal urethral cyst is a rare anomaly and appears as a small blister in proximity to the urethral meatus. These cysts may result from occlusion of paraurethral ducts or, in other cases, from faulty preputial separation from the glans along the coronal sulcus. A 20-year-old male patient came to our outpatient clinic at dr. M. Soewandhie General Hospital Surabaya with a cystic lesion on the right side of the external urethral meatus. The patient only found out about his situation one year ago, and he did not experience any complaints except a branched urination. On physical examination, an 8 mm cystic lesion was found on the right side of the external urethral meatus. The patient consented to complete surgical excision of the cyst. The procedure was performed under regional anesthesia. The cyst was completely resected from the surrounding tissues. One month after surgery, there is no post-operative pain and good urine flow, and the patient is also satisfied with the post-operative condition. Histologic examination shows pieces of tissue in the form of polypoid lined with squamous epithelium underneath, stroma of fibrous tissue with proliferation of blood vessels and some inflammatory cells of lymphocytes in between. There are no signs of malignancy. Parameatal urethral cyst is an abnormal and rare case, usually asymptomatic. However, sometimes dysuria, urinary retention, branching urine, and cosmetic problems are the reasons that cause patients to seek a doctor's help. It can be diagnosed just on physical examination and can be cured by complete excision.
