ABSTRACT

A fratura do pênis é definida como a ruptura da túnica albugínea do corpo cavernoso que ocorre exclusivamente durante a ereção. O principal mecanismo de trauma é o intercurso sexual traumático. Devido ao baixo número de casos, alguns pontos do tratamento ainda são controversos, entretanto, é recomendada a intervenção cirúrgica imediata. Este estudo retrospectivo observacional realizado entre abril de 2006 e abril de 2008 descreve os resultados da abordagem cirúrgica em 11 pacientes com fratura peniana tratados no Hospital Alberto Cavalcanti - FHEMIG. Foram avaliadas as características dos pacientes, o mecanismo do trauma, o tipo da lesão e as complicações no per e no pós-operatório imediato.
