Abstract

We have made a bibliografic review on the base of a personal observation rare case of a traumatic rupture of the corpus cavernosum. Upon all-literature, we have study, the only were 18 cases until 1956 and 64 in 1977. Ours would be the 65th. In this report we talk about the etiopathogenesis and symptomatology of this process. We insist on the need of a early surgery to get a good haemostasia, emptying of the haematoma and as a result prevention of cicatrization sequels which would determine penis significant deformities with subsequent disturbances in the erection and normal intercourse.
