Abstract/OtherAbstract:
To evaluate our diagnosis and treatment policy of penile fractures, we reviewed 13 cases treated between August 1992 and August 1995. In ten patients early surgical correction, in one patient an elective surgical intervention was carried out. Two patients with minimal haematoma were suggested to undergo conservative treatment, but only one of them came to the control examination and he complained of fixed induration, pain and mild deviation in erection. In the group of early surgical repair there was no complication. In a patient who had had a delayed procedure small induration and minimal deviation were found. In the light of these findings we think that in penile fractures early surgical repair produces the best results.
