Penile dog bite in an adolescent.
Dog bites to the external genitalia are rare. In this case, a 16-year-old boy suffered a dog bite wound to the penis. The wound was cleansed with copious amounts of sterile normal saline by means of high-pressure syringe irrigation. The child had an uneventful recovery.
