Nursing Diagnosis for Child with Hypospadias : Acute Pain
Hypospadias is a congenital disorder that can be detected when or shortly after birth, the term hypospadias explained by abnormalities in male urethral opening. The disorder is more common in hypospadias the urethral opening, usually appears beside the ventral penile shaft. Often, though not always, these abnormalities associated as a chordee, which is the term for a penis that rotate downward. (Speer, 2007: 168)
In most patients there is a curved penis downward which will appear more clearly on erection. This is caused by the presence of chordee, which is a fibrous tissue that spreads ranging from abnormally located meatus to the glans penis. This fibrous tissue is a rudimentary form of the urethra, corpus spongiosum and the tunica dartos. Although the presence of chordee is one of the hallmark for suspecting a hypospadias, keep in mind that not all of hypospadias have chordee. (Mansjoer, 2000: 374)
