Bookey cites the case of six wounds from one bullet with
recovery. The bullet entered the sole and emerged from the dorsum
of the foot. It then went through the right buttock and came out
of the groin, only to penetrate the dorsum of the penis and
emerge at the upper part of the glans. Rose speaks of a case in
which a man had his clothes caught in machinery, drawing in the
external genital organs. The testicles were found to be
uninjured, but the penis was doubled out of sight and embedded in
the scrotum, from whence it was restored to its natural position
and the man recovered.
Nelaton describes a case of luxation of the penis in a lad of six
who fell from a cart. Nelaton found the missing member in the
scrotum, where it had been for nine days. He introduced Sir
Astley Cooper's instrument for tying deeply-seated arteries
through a cutaneous tube, and conducting the hook under the
corporus cavernosum, seized this crosswise, and by a to-and-fro
movement succeeded in replacing the organ.
Moldenhauer describes the case of a farmer of fifty-seven who was
injured in a runaway accident, a wheel passing over his body
close to the abdomen. The glans penis could not be recognized,
since the penis in toto had been torn from its sheath at the
corona, and had slipped or been driven into the inguinal region.
