Answer to Question 1

Ans: C, D, E
The newborn's foreskin does not normally retract. This may not be possible until later in infancy. If the foreskin does not retract do not force it. If the foreskin is able to be retracted, do so gently. Return the foreskin to place prior to applying the diaper. Soap and water should be used several times per day to clean the penis and perineal area.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A
A vesicostomy refers to a stoma created in the abdominal wall to the bladder. A ureteral stent is a thin catheter temporarily placed in the ureter to drain urine. A continent urinary diversion uses a piece of the intestine to create a bladder that can be catheterized. Bladder augmentation involves the use of a piece of the stomach or intestine to enlarge bladder capacity.
