Abstract
We report on a patient with atypical clinical findings in whom magnetic resonance imaging confirmed the suspicion of penile rupture. The tear appeared as an obvious discontinuity of the low signal intensity of the tunica albuginea and was associated with a hematoma. We conclude that magnetic resonance imaging is useful for confirming the diagnosis of penile rupture when clinical findings are atypical, indicating surgical repair.Entities:
