In boys, most traumas to the scrotum result from sports or straddle injuries and do typically not inflict serious injury. Due to the small size and mobility of the prepubertal testicles, testicular injuries from penetrating trauma are less common in this age group. Penetrating scrotal injury, which poses a significant threat to testicular viability, is more prevalent among adolescents and young men. We describe two unusual genital injuries; one in childhood and the other in adulthood.

Death by collision with an incoming train is common in countries where a railroad network exists. In such cases, when there is severe pelvic trauma, the penis may be partially degloved and turned inside out. The inverted penile skin may then resemble a vulva and the scrotum may mimic labia majora, causing the injured male genitalia to strongly resemble female genitalia.

Article Synopsis
- Ultrasound is the top non-invasive method for diagnosing testicular issues, effectively distinguishing between causes of acute pain and swelling like epididymitis and testicular torsion.
- It can detect and analyze masses inside and outside the testicle, especially when irregularities or swelling are present.
- Proper training and knowledge of the technique's limits improve the interpretation of ultrasound results, helping in clinical decision-making.
Article Synopsis
- Sclerosing oleogranuloma of the penis is a rare, benign condition resulting from the injection of foreign substances for penile augmentation, leading to painful lesions and quality of life issues in affected males.
- Diagnosis involves patient history, physical examination, and histological analysis, while treatment typically requires surgical excision followed by reconstruction.
- A clinical case detailing the one-stage Sapozhkov-Reich procedure was performed on a 21-year-old man to address a giant oleogranuloma with multiple lesions and ulceration.
