“…There is an increase in AGD with the progression of age except that there is a regression in AGD in the 7th and 10th months. 3 In our study there is also an increase in AGD with age, especially in the first year of life, with AGD mean ± SD 37.6 ± 18.3 mm at the age of the first year and 74.6 ± 7.6 at the age of 10 years.…”

“…SPL showed smaller values in infants 6-9 months old compared to younger infants. 3 This study detects a rapid increase in SPL in the first few months of life which reflects the effects of minipuberty. The fact that SPL correlated positively with other anthropometric measurements suggests that SPL might be controlled by nutritional and/or hormonal factors.…”

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. Aim of the study: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 at 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

“…These differences in penile length values are attributed to the variation in geographic areas, countries and ethnicity of the studied groups. An Egyptian study on 2972 boys aged 1-5 years, had established SPL percentile curves (6) . In another study a reference value for normal SPL in 1000 full term Egyptian boys aged 1 day to 13 years was reported (18) .…”

“…The national percentile curves are important to be applied for each country. It can help the pediatrician to know normal variation in neonates and to diagnose the diseases early when treatment may yield better results (6) .

Background: The examination of the external genital organs is important in neonatal screening. The diagnosis of micropenis early at birth is essential as it could be the only sign of deficiency of pituitary or hypothalamic hormones. Objective: The aim of the present study is to determine the normal values of stretched penile length among preterm Egyptian newborns at different gestational ages. Patients and methods: A cross sectional study was conducted on 1000 healthy preterm male. Stretched penile length (SPL) was registered during the first 72 hours of age. Birth weight and length were also recorded. Results: In the gestational age between 32 and 36 weeks, the mean of SPL was 2.43 (SD 0.44) cm, and ranged from 1.5 to 3.8 cm. A chart was developed of penile length means, ±1 SD, ±2 SD, and ±3 SD. Conclusions:The results of the present study on Egyptian preterm neonates provide the first values for SPL (±1 SD, ± 2 SD, and ± 3 SD) at different gestational ages and could be applied on Egyptian preterm.

“…In contrast, patients with disorders of sex development also exhibit micropenis and other genital malformations. Identification of the child with micropenis by the urologist will enable prompt referral to the endocrinologist, leading to early investigations and medical treatment before trying surgical repair of the child's undescended testis or hypospadias (2) .…”

Introduction: Penile length is very important for evaluation of the normal external genitalia and detection of genital anomalies such as macro-and micro-penis. Establishing a normal population, age specific reference range for penile length helps in both accurate evaluation of penile size and early detection of any penile abnormalities Objective: To assess normal values of stretched penile length of the prepubertal normal Egyptian boys aged 5 to 9 years and to establish a penile growth chart & percentiles concerning penile length for those boys. Patients and Methods:A cross sectional study is conducted in Egypt included 1500 boys aged 5 to 9 years in Cairo University Children's Hospital, Faculty of Medicine. Boys are divided into 5 groups each group 300 boys. All boys were subjected to measurement of stretched penile length, height, weight, and BMI. Results: The mean penile length ± SD by age grouping were at 5 years = 5.31 ± 0.92 cm, at 6 years = 5.51 ±1 cm, at 7 years = 5.87 ± 0.85 S cm, at 8 years = 6.19 ± 0.93 cm and at 9 years = 6.1 ± 0.92 cm. Conclusion:In order to aid in the diagnosis of genital abnormalities, this study introduced new reference values, percentiles and chart for stretched penile length in prepubertal normal Egyptian boys aged 5 to 9 years.
