Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Peyronie disease is a fibrotic condition that causes lateral curvature of the penis during erection. Phimosis is a condition in which the foreskin cannot be retracted back over the glans. Cryptor-chidism is a condition of testicular maldescent. Paraphimosis is the opposite: the foreskin is re-tracted and cannot be moved forward (reduced) to cover the glans.

Answer to Question 2

Phimosis is a condition in which the foreskin cannot be retracted back over the glans. Paraphimo-sis is the opposite: the foreskin is retracted and cannot be moved forward (reduced) to cover the glans. Peyronie disease is a fibrotic condition that causes lateral curvature of the penis during erection. Priapism is a prolonged erection.
