Abstract

Corrective surgery for hematoma of the penis has been used for many years (1,2,3,4). Basically, this method is comprised of using sterile surgical technique to remove the blood clot and suturing the rent in the tunica albuginea of the penis followed by skin sutures to close the surgical incision. Metcalf (5) described a variation in clot removal by using a stab incision and suction. The above methods are followed by sexual stimulation soon after the surgery-breeding or electro-ejaculation.
