Abstract
Penile strangulation and entrapment is an unusual acute urologic emergency
with a potential for serious complication. It can occur in adults and children.
Penile incarceration from metallic and non-metallic objects has been
reported since 1755. Patients present with various grades of penile injury &
treatment varies with the grade at presentation. Removal of the offending
objects can be cumbersome and tricky at times. We present a case and
review the treatment options in such situations.
