What's the difference between foreskin and paraphimosis?
Foreskin
Definition:
(n.) The fold of skin which covers the glans of the penis; the prepuce.
Example Sentences:

(11) To study the synthesis of the EBA antigen, cultured human keratinocytes and fibroblasts, derived from neonatal foreskins, were metabolically labeled with 14C-labeled amino acids.
(12) Nevertheless, because of the need for a scrotal flap of fat to prevent fistula formation and to ensure vascularization of the graft, and because of the availability of a vascularized flap from the foreskin in most cases, the free graft patch procedure is best reserved for cases in which the foreskin is either absent or deficient.

(17) The protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitor staurosporine was found to dramatically alter the actin microfilament cytoskeleton of a variety of cultured cells, including PTK2 epithelial cells, Swiss 3T3 fibroblasts, and human foreskin fibroblasts.
(18) Experiments probing the mechanism by which glucocorticoids modulate cell proliferation were carried out on serum-free cell cultures of quiescent human diploid foreskin (HF) cells.
(19) In contrast, DNA synthesis in keratinocytes derived from neonatal foreskins was consistently suppressed by retinoic acid, independent of the polyamine status.
(20) Normal diploid foreskin fibroblasts and a histiocytic lymphoma cell line were deprived of CABLA production.
Paraphimosis
Definition:
(n.) A condition in which the prepuce, after being retracted behind the glans penis, is constricted there, and can not be brought forward into place again.
Example Sentences:
(1) A Thoroughbred stallion with erectile dysfunction following paraphimosis was managed to allow consistent ejaculation.
(2) Strongly related to risk were conditions restricting the motility of the foreskin, including phimosis or paraphimosis, particularly when so severe that circumcision was used for treatment.
(3) This paper reports seven cases of penile paraphimosis which occurred in both entire and castrated horses in association with general debility.
(4) Paraphimosis should be considered a possible sequela to penile translocation in bulls.
(5) In addition, 14 cases of paraphimosis, one phimosis and 4 fractures of the os penis were seen.
(6) The paraphimosis did not resolve with bandaging and topical treatment; thus, it was surgically corrected by retracting the distal sigmoid flexure of the penis and suturing it to the superficial fascia in the medial femoral region.
(7) Treatments of penile and preputial injuries, anomalies, tumors, "summer sores," paraphimosis, phimosis, and priapism are presented.
(8) Compared with circumcised males, uncircumcised males are at greater risk for urinary tract infection, sexually transmitted disease, phimosis, paraphimosis, and balanoposthitis.
(9) A bull with penile translocation and bilateral caudal epididymectomy developed paraphimosis when used for estrus detection of cows.
(10) Properly performed newborn circumcision prevents phimosis, paraphimosis, and balanoposthitis and has been shown to decrease the incidence of cancer of the penis among US men.
(11) He then presented to hospital with acute paraphimosis.
(12) Clinical signs included hind limb paresis and paraphimosis.
(13) Complications arise as a result of persistently elevated blood pressure in the deep venous system and the erectile tissue in 10-20% of cases and are most often linked to dilatation of the shunt: the consequences are enlargement and induration of the glans, hazard of phimosis and paraphimosis, pulsation of the penis, micturation difficulties and, ultimately, ulceration of the glans.
(14) Clinical signs included erratic, colic-like behavior followed by depression, bradycardia, miosis, ptosis, and paraphimosis.
