Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Trauma Surgery

Background:

  • A 23-year-old male presented with acute penile pain and swelling post-sexual intercourse.
  • Physical examination revealed a bruised and tender penis, with maximal tenderness on the right lateral side.

Observation:

  • The patient's presentation suggested a significant penile injury.
  • Urinalysis was conducted as part of the diagnostic workup.

Findings:

  • Diagnosis of a rupture of the right corpus cavernosum was established.
  • This diagnosis indicates a penile fracture, a serious traumatic event.

Implications:

  • Immediate surgical intervention is crucial for managing penile fractures.
  • Prompt surgical repair aims to restore penile function and prevent long-term complications.
