Fracture of the Penis: Demonstration by MRI with Surgical Correlation

MRI of a 21-year-old man with a penile fracture demonstrated disruption of the tunica albuginea and adjacent hematoma. Both MRI and subsequent retrograde uretrogram showed that the urethra was not injured. The imaging findings were confirmed at surgery, and the penis was successfully repaired.
