Abstract:
Penile strangulation is a rare but serious urological emergency requiring prompt intervention to prevent severe complications such as ischemia and necrosis. Typically self-inflicted, the condition arises when a constricting object obstructs venous and lymphatic outflow, leading to progressive edema. Metallic rings, often implicated in such cases, pose unique challenges as they become lodged behind the edematous tissue, rendering standard hospital equipment ineffective for removal. Management requires a tailored approach, often utilizing specialized tools like metal cutters. Here, we discuss the presentation and management of two such cases treated at our institution.
