Komplet üretra rüptürüyle birlikte olan penil fraktür

Penile fracture with complete urethral rupture OBJECTIVES: Penile fracture is a trauma that develops as a result of the rupture of the corpus cavernosum by forcing the erect penis to bend and twist and requires emergency surgery. Urethral trauma accompanies penile fracture in 1–40% of cases. In this study, we aimed to present a case of penile fracture with complete urethral rupture. CASE REPORT: A 51-year-old male patient presented to the emergency service with the complaints of sudden loss of erection, bruising and pain in the penile shaft after a cracking sound during coitus. Physical examination revealed limited ecchymosis and swelling in the penile shaft and hemorrhage in the external urethral meatus. Urethrography was performed on the patient due to urethrography. On urethrography, it was observed that there was contrast extravasation from the middle urethra. The patient was operated in the early period. In the midpenile region, it was observed that there were ruptures of approximately 1 cm in both corpus cavernosum and complete rupture in the urethra. Cavernosal ruptures and urethral rupture were repaired. At the postoperative 6th month follow-up, the patient had no erectile dysfunction and voiding symptoms. CONCLUSIONS: The “crackling sound” heard during coitus, severe pain and penile detumescence are typical clinical findings of penile fracture. If there are symptoms of bleeding in the meatus, hematuria and difficulty in voiding, urethral trauma should be considered. In these patients, urethral repair is also required during the operation.
