Dorsal penile frenulum a rare congenital abnormality
2019
Dorsal penile frenulum is noted to be an extremely rare congenital penile abnormality. Only two cases have been reported in the literature. A 31-year-old male was involved in a motor vehicle accident and sustained a pelvic fracture and a scrotal laceration which was the main reason for urology consult. Genital examination revealed a circumcised penis, the presence of two frenula and a right scrotal laceration. Scrotal laceration was cleaned and closed. Orthopaedic surgeon took over the patient for the pelvic fracture. This is the third reported case of a dorsal penile frenulum incidentally found in a circumcised male and completely asymptomatic. A brief review of relevant embryology and anatomy is herein discussed.
