Abstract

Penile emergencies include a wide array of traumatic, vascular, or infectious etiology with uncommon presentations and require prompt medical evaluation. Penile emergencies can be treated conservatively or surgically, and their management often relies on prompt diagnosis. Missing or delaying diagnosis and treatment often results in permanent loss of function or, in some cases, loss of the affected organ itself. This case series aims to review major penile emergencies at our institute with peculiar attention to clinical presentation and practical management in order to provide the specialist with reliable information to keep in mind when confronting these challenging occurrences.
