Strangulation injuries to the penis, also called incarceration injuries, are caused by hair, rubber bands, or other objects. [6] [7] Hair strangulation may be hard to diagnose due to the anatomy of the penis; the hair causing the strangulation may be hidden under the coronal sulcus if it is swollen. [8]
Penectomy involves the partial or total amputation of the penis. Sometimes, the removal of the entire penis was done in conjunction with castration, or incorrectly referred to as castration. Removing the penis was often performed on eunuchs and high ranking men who would frequently be in contact with women, such as those belonging to a harem.
A comparative study between women who had consensual vaginal sex and victims of rape found that in consensual sex, 6.9 percent of women had genital injuries. Among women who were raped, 22.8 percent suffered genital injuries. [74] In men, there is a risk of penile rupture if the penis is bent when erect. This is a case of medical emergency.
Penile amputation is a rare injury and is considered an emergency urological condition. Some of the reasons this may occur are self-mutilation with psychiatric disturbances, sexual need, accidents, iatrogenic injuries, or revenge and marriage breakdown. Since this is a rare injury there is no standardized method to treat this.
