New Delhi [India], July 8 (ANI): Who would have thought that sex, one of the most pleasurable things in the world, could actually become a punishment for a 50-year-old man in Indonesia.
The unnamed man recently suffered an extremely rare penile fracture during sex. Doctors diagnosed the man with an "eggplant deformity", which is a rare condition that typically happens when an erect penis experiences blunt trauma during sex, like slipping out of a partner's vagina and bending against their genitals.
In severe cases, the resulting swelling from the trauma can block a person's urinary tract. If left untreated, eggplant deformity can lead to impotence and permanent deformity.
In a paper published in the International Journal of Surgery Case Reports, the doctors who diagnosed the man detailed the events leading up to the mishap and how they treated him for a full recovery, Insider reported.
The patient felt a crack while having intercourse with his partner. He immediately rushed to the nearby hospital after he realised that he lost his erection and found blood in his private part.
When doctors examined the man's penis, they found a hematoma, or blood clot, that ran from its tip to his scrotum and a ruptured urethra, which, if left untreated, can block urine flow.
To treat the man, the doctors sliced his penis open to pull back the outer skin so they could repair his broken urethra and erectile tissue with absorbable stitches. They also cut open his scrotum to drain the hematoma they found during his initial exam.
After surgery, they tested the man's penis by giving him an "artificial erection." Since he didn't have any complications, like fluid leakage or a curved penis, the doctors sent him to rest at the hospital for five days. During this time, and for the next 21 days at home, doctors told the man to pee through a catheter they inserted into his urethra.
Four months after the incident, the patient informed the doctors that his sexual life has been revived. (ANI)
