Abstract

Objective: To study the Stretched Penile Length (SPL) and Testicular Volume (TV) in newborns and to analyze their correlation with various anthropometric parameters in newborns with gestational age between 32-42 completed weeks. Study Design: Descriptive study Settings: Tertiary care centre in Faridkot, Punjab, India. Participants: 800 newborns were studied within 72 hours of life. Methods: Stretched penile length was measured by Schonfeld’s Method and Testicular volume was measured by using Prader's orchidometer. The weight of the baby was measured using electronic baby weighing scale with resolution of 10 g. The supine length was measured with an infantometer with a resolution of 1 mm. Results: Mean SPL in preterm ( 37 weeks) group it was 30.20 ± 3.30 mm (95% CI=29.98-30.43), whereas the Mean TV in preterm group was 0.64 ± 0.18 mm (95% CI=0.63-0.65) and in term group was 0.86 ± 0.16 mm (95% CI=0.84-0.87). There was a strong positive correlation of Mean SPL and Mean TV with various anthropometric parameters. Conclusion: This study is an attempt to set normative data of SPL and TV according to gestational age. We have concluded that a SPL of <22 mm in term newborns and <16 mm in preterm newborns can be considered as micropenis and mean SPL and TV correlates with anthropometric measurements.

目的研究印度新生儿阴茎伸展长度和睾丸体积。

目的:研究孕周32 ~ 42周新生儿的拉伸阴茎长度(SPL)和睾丸体积(TV)，并分析其与各种人体测量参数的相关性。研究设计:描述性研究设置:印度旁遮普省法里德科特三级保健中心。参与者:研究了800名出生后72小时内的新生儿。方法:用Schonfeld法测定拉伸后阴茎长度，用Prader氏睾丸仪测定睾丸体积。采用分辨率为10g的电子婴儿称测量婴儿体重。仰卧位长度用分辨率为1mm的红外计测量。结果:早产儿(37周)组平均SPL为30.20±3.30 mm (95% CI=29.98 ~ 30.43)，早产儿组平均TV为0.64±0.18 mm (95% CI=0.63 ~ 0.65)，足月组平均TV为0.86±0.16 mm (95% CI=0.84 ~ 0.87)。平均SPL和平均TV与各种人体测量参数有很强的正相关。结论:本研究尝试根据胎龄建立标准的SPL和TV数据。我们得出结论，足月新生儿SPL <22 mm和早产儿新生儿<16 mm可被认为是小阴茎，平均SPL和TV与人体测量相关。
