- Abstract
Phimosis in boys is a common condition. In the majority of cases it is physiological without symptoms. Symptomatic phimosis can often be treated successfully with local steroid cream - only a minority of patients need surgery. This study concludes that diagnosis, information to patients and guardians, initiation and follow-up of local steroid treatment can successfully, and safely, be delegated to trained assistant nurses.
