Penile Fracture Management at Trauma Centers in the United States
In this large retrospective study, most patients underwent immediate penile fracture repair. However, several patients did not have surgery at the time of their presentation, which was associated with presenting to a nonteaching hospital, having government health insurance, and the presence of urethral injury. Advocating for prompt surgical management remains paramount for improving care for patients with penile fracture.
