Abstract:
Penile fracture is a rare injury to the penis caused by blunt trauma. The presence of urethral injuries sustained during fracture is less than 10%, but very few cases involve complete circumferential urethral transection. We present a case of a patient who presented with traumatic penile fracture involving bilateral corporal cavernosa injury and complete urethral transection.
