Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Trauma Surgery

Background:

  • Penile injuries are uncommon but can lead to significant morbidity.
  • Urethral involvement is common in penile trauma, complicating management.
  • A subset of penile injuries occurs without urethral damage, requiring specific evaluation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review a decade of experience with penile injuries.
  • To classify penile injuries that do not involve the urethra.
  • To highlight the urgency of managing penile trauma without urethral injury.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective review of 156 male external genitalia injuries from May 2002 to December 2012.
  • Inclusion criteria: 26 patients with penile injuries and no associated urethral injuries.
  • Injury classification into four groups: fractures, amputation, penetrating, and soft tissue injuries.

  • Utilized the American Association for the Surgery of Trauma (AAST)-Organ Injury Scale for grading.

    • Main Results:

    • A total of 26 patients with penile injuries without urethral involvement were analyzed.
    • The injuries were categorized into penile fractures (12), amputation (5), penetrating (2), and soft tissue (7).
    • The AAST-Organ Injury Scale was applied to grade the severity of these injuries.

    Conclusions:

    • Penile injuries devoid of urethral damage represent a distinct clinical entity.
    • These injuries necessitate immediate urological attention due to potential complications.
    • Classification and grading using the AAST scale aid in understanding and managing these specific traumas.
