Abstract
Penile entrapment is a rare but serious urological emergency, which can easily lead to stangulation and infarction. We report a case of penile entrapment in a polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottle in a 49-year-old male. Attempts to cut the bottle with a scalpel or a glass saw were ineffective. Finally, the bottle neck was cut longitudinally with an oscillating saw intended for cutting plaster casts.Entities:
