Background
- Any pt w/ trauma to genitalia w/ a prothesis in place should be seen by a urologist
- All penetrating trauma to the penis requires surgical consultation
- Avulsed penile skin should not be reapplied (invariably becomes necrotic and infected)
Penile Amputations
- Amputated part should be placed in a sterile bag after wrapped in wet saline gauze, then place in another bag submerged in ice and tap water.
- DO NOT submerge in saline and ice since freezing point will be higher
