Abstract

Penile abscess is an unusual pathology in the practice of urologists, given the rarity of cases. It can occur spontaneously or be secondary to trauma, injection, or endourethral procedures. Diagnostic confirmation is achieved through imaging. Treatment involves surgical or radiological drainage, depending on the size and location of the abscess, along with antibiotic therapy. Postoperative complications may include erectile dysfunction and penile deviation, necessitating subsequent surgical repairs.
