Abstract

Pelvic fracture is a common cause of traumatic injury of the bladder and posterior urethra; however, isolated corporal injury is rare. We present a case of pelvic fracture associated with proximal injury of the penile corpora cavernosa sparing the urethra and bladder, together with a literature review of erectile dysfunction post-pelvic fracture.

Keywords: Erectile dysfunction; pelvic fracture; penile trauma.
