Application of constricting devices on the external male genitalia for increasing sexual performance is an unusual practice that can potentially lead to penile strangulation with severe consequences. In this case report we describe a case of a 48 year old male who presented in our hospital with a steel ring on his external genitalia which led to penile strangulation and a short review of the literature. The foreign body was successfully removed by an angle grinder which was not immediately available in the operating theatre. The patient had an uneventful recovery.
在外生殖器上使用紧缩装置以提高性功能是一种不寻常的做法,可能会导致阴茎绞窄并产生严重后果。在本病例报告中,我们描述了一名48岁男性患者,他因外生殖器上套着一个钢环导致阴茎绞窄而前来我院就诊,并对相关文献进行了简要回顾。异物通过角磨机成功取出,而角磨机在手术室中并非随时可用。患者术后恢复顺利。
