Penile fracture: a report of 6 cases / 대한비뇨기과학회지

ABSTRACT

Penile fracture is an uncommon injury resulting from a direct blow to the erect penis. The authors experienced 6 cases of penile fracture recently and reviewed the literature. We performed immediate exploration with suture closure of the defect in all cases. None of the patients had penile deformity and all retained erectile potency. One of the two patients on whom primary end-to-end anastomosis was performed due to urethral rupture had mild urethral stricture. Therefore, we advocate early surgical repair of the penile fracture.
