Only patients with isolated penile bee stings were included in the study. Patients were evaluated in terms of the age at presentation, time of occurrence, symptoms, and treatment modality.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>There were 10 patients treated for penile bee sting. Patients ranged in age from 3 to 7 years (mean, 4.2 years). The most common complaints of the patients at presentation were pain (100%), swelling (100%), and dysuria (70%). Three of the patients were unable to void. The gauze moistened with warm saline was applied to the penis of these patients who developed glob, and all of these patients urinated after the warm application. Three of the patients had progressive erythema on the penile skin. These patients were admitted to the pediatric surgery department to monitor whether skin necrosis would develop. In all patients, the erythema regressed significantly within 48 hours and regained its completely normal appearance at the end of 72 hours.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>The probability of the development of serious local reactions and urological problems in penile bee stings is low. Oral nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug and warm, wet dressing are usually sufficient to treat local reactions. Penile bee stings may be evaluated within the scope of summer penile syndrome because their symptoms, clinical findings, and treatments are almost similar.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1097\/pec.0000000000002791","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,6,24]],"date-time":"2022-06-24T18:00:08Z","timestamp":1656093608000},"page":"e1469-e1471","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1097\/lww.0000000000001000","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Pediatric Penile Bee Sting"],"prefix":"10.1097","volume":"38","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4170-0367","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mirzaman","family":"Huseynov","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Pediatric Surgery"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ali","family":"Cebisli","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Emergency Medicine, Ercis Sehit Ridvan Cevik Public Hospital, Van, Turkey."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Atiye","family":"Ozturk","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Emergency Medicine, Ercis Sehit Ridvan Cevik Public Hospital, Van, Turkey."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mahmut","family":"Sahin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Emergency Medicine, Ercis Sehit Ridvan Cevik Public Hospital, Van, Turkey."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Merve","family":"Akin Ozdemir","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Emergency Medicine, Ercis Sehit Ridvan Cevik Public Hospital, Van, Turkey."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mustafa","family":"Polat","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Emergency Medicine, Ercis Sehit Ridvan Cevik Public Hospital, Van, Turkey."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"276","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,6,23]]},"reference":[{"key":"bib1-20250504","first-page":"267","article-title":"Three-year-old boy with swelling and ecchymosis of the penis","volume":"46","year":"2011","journal-title":"Turk Arch Pediatr"},{"key":"bib2-20250504","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"114","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1610-0387.2009.07125.x","article-title":"Hymenoptera venom allergy","volume":"8","year":"2010","journal-title":"J Dtsch Dermatol Ges"},{"key":"bib3-20250504","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"180","DOI":"10.18176\/jiaci.0310","article-title":"Hymenoptera venom allergy: management of children and adults in clinical practice","volume":"29","year":"2019","journal-title":"J Investig Allergol Clin Immunol"},{"key":"bib4-20250504","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1959","DOI":"10.3389\/fimmu.2019.01959","article-title":"Hymenoptera venom allergy: how does venom immunotherapy prevent anaphylaxis from bee and wasp stings?","volume":"10","year":"2019","journal-title":"Front Immunol"},{"key":"bib5-20250504","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"2274","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJMicm2024132","article-title":"Corneal bee sting","volume":"383","year":"2020","journal-title":"N Engl J Med"},{"key":"bib6-20250504","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"911","DOI":"10.1093\/qjmed\/hcv090","article-title":"Cornea bee sting","volume":"108","year":"2015","journal-title":"QJM"},{"key":"bib7-20250504","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"155","DOI":"10.5694\/mja17.01202","article-title":"Bee sting to the cornea: toxic effects and management","volume":"209","year":"2018","journal-title":"Med J Aust"},{"key":"bib8-20250504","first-page":"592","article-title":"Supraglottic bee sting","volume":"112","year":"1995","journal-title":"Otolaryngol Head Neck Surg"},{"key":"bib9-20250504","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"392","DOI":"10.1097\/ICO.0b013e3181f234a6","article-title":"Bee sting of the cornea and conjunctiva: management and outcomes","volume":"30","year":"2011","journal-title":"Cornea"},{"key":"bib10-20250504","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"e338","DOI":"10.7717\/peerj.338","article-title":"Honey bee sting pain index by body location","volume":"2","year":"2014","journal-title":"Peer J"},{"key":"bib12-20250504","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"35","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1398-9995.2011.02630.x","article-title":"Anaphylaxis caused by Hymenoptera stings: from epidemiology to treatment","volume":"66","year":"2011","journal-title":"Allergy"},{"key":"bib13-20250504","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"546","DOI":"10.1016\/S0022-3476(82)80750-6","article-title":"An epidemiologic study of insect allergy in children.
