This short communication describes a case of a 30-year-old stallion with a mass on the base of the penis causing paraphimosis. The patient was submitted to anti-inflammatory and diuretic therapy with no signs of improvement, so 16 days after the lesion was detected, the animal was euthanized. Necropsy was performed, and histopathological assessment of the lesion was conducted. The mass was composed primarily of channels and cavernous structures, lined by elongated cells of vascular origin, located in the preputium. The lesion was diagnosed as a preputial lymphangioma. To the authors' best knowledge, the anatomical location of this neoplasm (which is rare in veterinary medicine) has not been previously reported.

Comparative Study
PURPOSE
Circumcision is the most common surgical procedures performed in males. Medical circumcision is recommended for diseases such as phimosis, paraphimosis, balanoposthitis and common urinary tract infections, although there is no exact indication. Conversely, Jewish and Muslim individuals commonly undergo circumcision regardless of medical necessity. Circumcision devices are designed to shorten surgery time, achieve an aesthetic appearance and ensure safe surgery. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the NeoAlis clamp, a disposable circumcision device, by comparing it with the sleeve technique in children.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Between 2017 and 2023, retrospective evaluation of 2626 patients who underwent circumcision using either the NeoAlis clamp (group 1) or the sleeve technique (group 2) was conducted. Operation time, results, cost, complications were compared between the two groups.
RESULTS
The study encompassed 2626 patients who fulfilled the inclusion criteria. Group 1 comprised 2403 patients, whereas Group 2 consisted of 223 patients. The overall complication rate, as denoted by n = 47, was 1.7%. Group 1 operation time was shorter than group 2. Bleeding, the most feared complication in the early period, was higher in the second group. No statistically significant difference was observed between the two groups regarding cost comparison.
CONCLUSION
The primary concern during circumcision is to avoid complications related to general anesthesia in newborns and infants. The use of disposable ring devices has been facilitated by the shorter operation time and the absence of the need for sutures when performing circumcision under local anesthesia. However, knowledge of advanced surgical circumcision techniques is necessary in cases of bleeding and inappropriate ring placement.

An 8-year-old intact male degu was examined with a 48-hour history of paraphimosis. The penis was devitalized and medical management was unsuccessful. A subtotal penile amputation was performed and a urethral-to-preputial anastomosis was created as part of a circumferential preputial urethrostomy. The immediate outcome in this case was good, with no complications. Key clinical message: Surgical intervention for paraphimosis in degus may be required in extreme cases of penile necrosis or due to an inability to replace the penis within the prepuce. Despite the degu's small size, surgery is feasible, as has been described in other species.

Fournier's gangrene is a rare, rapidly progressive, fulminant form of infective necrotising fasciitis of the genital, perianal and perineal regions. We present a case of Fournier's gangrene of the penis complicating acute genital ulceration and recurrent paraphimosis that was secondary to contemporaneous COVID-19 and Mpox infection in an otherwise healthy 41-year-old man. It is important for clinicians to be aware of Fournier's gangrene, as early detection remains the cornerstone of effective tissue and indeed life conserving management.
