Long Term Outcome of Patients with Penile Fracture Undergoing Delayed Repair
Journal Title: Open Journal of Trauma - Year 2017, Vol 1, Issue 2
Abstract
Introduction: Fracture of the penis is a rare urological emergency which occurs as a result of abrupt trauma to an erect penis. Immediate surgical repair is the standard of care and is superior to nonoperative management due to excellent long term outcomes. A large percentage of the patients present late for treatment out of fear or embarrassment. We report our series of patients who presented late and underwent delayed repair. We also report the long term outcome in these patients.
