TEACHING POINTS

1. To illustrate the Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) features of this uncommon but acute penile pathology, with clinical and surgical correlation in a case series from our institution over 6 years. 2. We highlight the perils and pitfalls of MRI in the diagnosis of penile fractures.

TABLE OF CONTENTS/OUTLINE

1. MR anatomy of Penis with an overview of our local imaging protocol for penile fracture 2. We discuss the MRI findings and clinical management, in 10 patients who presented with a clinical suspicion of penis fracture. 6 patients had tunical and corporal tear on imaging. 3. We review the available literature and summarise the typical imaging findings with surgical correlation. The management of penile fracture on the basis of clinical diagnosis alone is limited to certain extent due to the difficulty in examination and also lack of experience. This exhibit will enable a general radiologist to confidently diagnose this rare penile pathology. Our cases will illustrate to the readers that imaging is an important adjuvant to clinicians in the appropriate management of penile fractures.
