BMC/Sandeman Provincial Teaching Hospital, Quetta
A retrospective study of penile fractures treated at Bolan Medical College / Sandeman Provincial Teaching Hospital, Quetta, during the period 1994 to 2000 was carried out. Most of the patients treated (n - 20) were of younger age group. Common causes were blunt trauma during sexual intercourse, masturbation, unconscious nocturnal penile manipulation and fall on to an erect penis. Attempt should be made to introduce foley’s catheter to relieve the retention before carrying out proper surgical repair.
