Abstract
Penile fractures are classically described as presenting with rapid detumescence of an erection associated with blunt trauma. This clinical finding is due to a tear in the tunica albuginea surrounding the corpora cavernosum. We, however, present the case of a patient who presented with a 'classical' penile fracture but was found on surgical exploration to only have an isolated corpus spongiosum injury.Entities:
