Abstract：
:Fracture of the penis can be managed conservatively or surgically. Conservative management is associated with a high morbidity, and early surgical repair of the fracture is usually recommended in order to prevent complications. Because a fractured penis is swollen throughout its length, it is difficult to identify the fracture site accurately, so a degloving technique is usually used to locate and repair the torn corpus cavernosum; this can lead to further trauma and complications. In cases where extensive swelling makes accurate clinical localisation difficult, delaying the repair for 7-12 days facilitates easy identification and repair of the torn corpus cavernosum. We report three cases where treatment was delayed until the swelling had subsided, when a simple direct repair was successfully carried out.
