Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Trauma Surgery

Background:

  • Penile fracture is a rare urological emergency.
  • It results from blunt trauma to the erect penis, causing a tear in the tunica albuginea.

Observation:

  • Two cases of penile fracture are presented.
  • Diagnosis relies on patient history and clinical examination.

Findings:

  • One patient underwent immediate surgical repair.
  • The other received corrective surgery for posttraumatic penile deformity.

Implications:

  • Immediate surgical intervention is crucial for optimal outcomes.
  • Prompt treatment can prevent long-term complications such as erectile dysfunction and penile curvature.
