Abstract Penile fractures are an uncommon urological emergency. Typically, penile fractures involve the corpus cavernosum and are sometimes associated with urethral injury. Isolated corpus spongiosum and urethral injuries without concomitant corpus cavernosum injury are, however, rare. With proper knowledge of the management of penile fractures and urethral injuries, this distinct entity can be diagnosed, assessed and managed successfully without complications.

Key words： Penile fracture Urethral injury Penis Corpus spongiosum Urological trauma Urethroplasty
