Abstract

Urgent surgery of less than 24hrs from time of injury is the recognized gold standard approach in the management of penile fractures. The delay of more than a day is linked to higher rates of complications of which erectile dysfunction is the most devastating. We present a case of 28yrs old male who had normal erection despite of being operated 7days after injury.
