Abstract:
Complications arising from simple surgical procedures such as circumcision are uncommon. When a person devoid of surgical training performs these procedures, severe problems usually occur. This is a rare case of a 23-year-old, Filipino male with severe penile shaft erosion secondary to chronicpenile strangulation from complications of circumcision. A two-stage procedure was planned for this patient involving removal of the constricting object, debridement and anastomosis of the penile shaft. Postoperatively, there was good penile erectile function and an aesthetically acceptable form.
