Abstract
Penile fracture is an emergency for which surgery should be offered. Clinical suspicion of fracture should be high even with hematoma alone. Concomitant urethral injury is common, particularly with bilateral corporal rupture and/or initial hematuria. Preoperative counseling should include discussion of longâterm erectile and voiding dysfunction, penile deformity, and urethral fistula both with and without surgery. Close patient followâup is required.
