The PRODIGY (formerly CKS) topics on gonorrhoea, pelvic inflammatory disease and scrotal swelling have been updated. The guideline on the management of gonorrhoea has been updated to reflect the revised UK National Guideline for the Management of Gonorrhoea in Adults 2011 published by BASHH.

The information on the management of acute pelvic inflammatory disease has been updated to reflect guidance from the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists, the British Association for Sexual Health and HIV, and the European guideline for the management of pelvic inflammatory disease.

The PRODIGY topic on scrotal swelling covers the identification of the causes of scrotal swelling, and the primary care management of the common and/or important causes — suspected testicular cancer, suspected testicular torsion, suspected torsion of a testicular or epididymal appendage, epididymo-orchitis, indirect inguinal hernia, hydrocele, haematocele, squamous cell carcinoma of the scrotum, and epididymal cyst or spermatocele.
