Atypical Presentation of Penile Fracture : A Case Report

Penile fracture is a rare urological emergency caused by rupture of the tunica albuginea of the corpora cavernosa. Although typically associated with classic symptoms such as a cracking sound, immediate pain, and rapid loss of erection, atypical presentations occur. We present a case of a 21-year-old male with distal penile swelling following masturbation, without classical signs. Ultrasound suggested a partial penile shaft injury. This case emphasizes the need for clinical suspicion even in mild presentations and highlights the role of imaging in diagnosis. Early identification is essential to prevent complications such as erectile dysfunction, curvature, and fibrosis.
