Congenital Penile Curvature in a Young Man: A Case Report and Review of Literature
Journal Title: Urology and Andrology – Open Journal - Year 2017, Vol 1, Issue 2
Abstract
A varied level of penile deformation characterizes congenital penile curvature. It may to some extent affect the quality of the patient’s sex life. We report a case of congenital penile curvature diagnosed at adult age. A corrective surgery was performed by plication of the tunica albuginea of the cavernous body. A review of the literature underscores the rarity of publication on this condition and the treatment modalities.
