Congenital penile torsion, a rare anomaly characterized by the rotation of the penile shaft along its longitudinal axis, often goes unrecognized in low- and middle-income countries. This case highlights the management of a nine-year-old male presenting with isolated severe penile torsion using a Dartos flap rotation technique. The surgical approach was successful, with no postoperative complications, underscoring its utility as a simple and effective method, particularly in resource-limited settings.
