title: [Diagnostic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in fracture of the penis: a case report].
abstract: A 23-year-old man was admitted to our hospital complaining of swelling and pain in the penis. Examination revealed fracture of the penis. The tear in the tunica albuginea was not palpable on physical examination of the penis, but magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed the exact site of the tear in the tunica albuginea. MRI was very useful in localizing the site of fracture.
