Abstract

The use of surgical diathermy in the fulguration of penile warts is well established. The use of diathermy has been associated with urethral meatal stenosis resulting from circumferential thermal injury to the meatus. We describe the use of a plastic quill as a shield to prevent such circumferential thermal injuries.
