“…A prolonged disease course, sexual intercourse during gonorrhea, repeated squeezing of the penis, and a redundant prepuce may be risk factors for paraurethral duct infection by N . gonorrhoeae in male patients with gonorrhea [6]. Paraurethral duct dilatation is a sequela of paraurethral duct infection by N .…”

No studies have explored the risk factors for paraurethral duct dilatation following paraurethral duct infection by Neisseria gonorrhoeae in men undergoing ceftriaxone therapy. The present study was performed to explore the risk factors for paraurethral duct dilatation following paraurethral duct infection by N. gonorrhoeae in men undergoing ceftriaxone therapy and thus guide clinical interventions. We compared the demographic, behavioral, and clinical data of men with paraurethral duct infection by N. gonorrhoeae with and without dilatation of the paraurethral duct. Univariate analysis showed significant differences in age, disease course of the infected paraurethral duct, Chlamydia trachomatis infection in the paraurethral duct, and a history of paraurethral duct infection by N. gonorrhoeae between the patient and control groups (P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed consistent results (P<0.05). This study that shows delayed treatment may be a major risk factor for paraurethral duct dilatation secondary to paraurethral duct infection by N. gonorrhoeae in men. Age, C. trachomatis infection in the paraurethral duct, and a history of paraurethral duct infection by N. gonorrhoeae are also risk factors. Thus, educating patients to undergo timely therapy and treating the C. trachomatis infection may be effective interventions.

“…2 Neisseria gonorrhoeae can invade the paraurethral ducts through their openings, causing gonococcal inflammation of the paraurethral glands. [3][4][5][6] To determine the morphologic characteristics of inflamed paraurethral glands in men with gonococcal infection, we used an ultrasound system (ACUSON 9300 â , Siemens, Erlangen, Germany) with a probe frequency of 7.5-10 MHz to examine 32 men (aged 17-65 years, mean 34.6 years) with gonococcal inflammation of the paraurethral glands between February 2007 and February 2014.…”

“…The paraurethral ducts appear to be embryological remnants and are not visible to the naked eye ( Gilhooly & Hensle, 1984 ). Neisseria gonorrhoeae can invade the paraurethral duct via its orifice, resulting in gonococcal inflammation of the paraurethral duct ( Fan, 2010 ; Fan, & Zhang, 2012 ; Fan, Zhang, & Fan, 2012 ; Fan, Zhang, & Jiang, 2014 ; Sherrard, 2014 ). The inflammation clinically manifests as local erythematous swelling at the external urethral orifice, with a pinhead-like ostium at the center indicating the orifice of the paraurethral duct.…”

This study was performed to evaluate the therapeutic effects of wedge resection on male paraurethral duct dilatation following gonococcal paraurethral duct infection. Twenty-six men with paraurethral duct dilatation following gonococcal paraurethral duct infection were enrolled. Their lesions underwent wedge resection after examination using an ACUSON X300 ultrasound system. The anesthetic method, surgical duration, intraoperative blood loss, wound healing time, complications, sequelae, and curative effect were assessed. All 26 men received local infiltration anesthesia. The mean surgical duration was 18.65 ± 2.50 min (range, 14–23 min), the mean intraoperative blood loss was 10.50 ± 1.68 ml (range, 8–14 ml), and the mean wound healing time was 14.73 ± 1.31 days (range, 13–17 days). The lesions were cured in all patients (100%). The postoperative wounds healed in all patients. No complications or glans defects were observed in any patients. The study identifies that high-frequency ultrasound imaging–guided wedge resection is an effective and safe therapy for paraurethral duct dilatation following gonococcal paraurethral duct infection in men.
