Penile Fractures : Evaluation and Management - 01/10/21

Riassunto |
Penile fracture is a urologic injury with an etiology that varies based on the cultural milieu. Diagnosis can be made based on history and physical examination alone. Patients should be evaluated with RUG or cystoscopy when urethral injury is suspected. Ultrasound or MRI is a helpful adjunct when the diagnosis is unclear, and can assist in identifying the location of the rupture. Surgical management is favored over conservative measures to improve outcomes. Delayed surgical repair may not be inferior to immediate intervention.
