The clinical examination confirmed the diagnosis of a corpus cavernosa fracture associated with a ruptured urethra. The patient underwent cystostomy, right cavernoraphy and urethrorrhaphy. The postoperative follow-up was straightforward and the patient was discharged from the hospital on D3 postoperatively. The urethral catheter was removed on D21 postoperatively. With a follow-up of 1 year, the patient presents a good erection and does not report any voiding disorder.展开更多
