The development and management of necrotizing cellulitis following penile constriction ring use is described. Devastating injuries such as this can be highly distressing for patients and focused counseling is often needed to address concerns regarding cosmetic outcomes. The timeframe and appearance of recovery has not been previously captured. We present a photographic timeline covering the development, management, and postoperative recovery from penile constriction ring injury over the course of 1 month.

Purpose: This study evaluates the effectiveness of artificial urinary sphincter (AUS) implantation following transperineal reanastomosis in men with vesicourethral anastomotic stenosis (VUAS) and stress urinary incontinence (SUI) after radical prostatectomy (RP), focusing on long-term explantation rates and urinary continence.

Methods: Patients treated between 2009 and 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. Those undergoing AUS implantation post-transperineal reanastomosis for recurrent VUAS, excluding cases with prior pelvic irradiation and overactive bladder, were included.

Background: Penile constriction devices offer a noninvasive approach to enhance the sexual experience and as the variety of penile constriction devices increases, it is crucial to assess patient preferences and device effectiveness to provide insights into their clinical utility.

Aim: We aimed to compare the preferences for and effectiveness of two medical-grade penile constriction devices: Eddie by Giddy and FirmTech.

Methods: Between May and July of 2023, males were recruited via social media and prospectively enrolled into an Institutional Review Board-approved, randomized, questionnaire-based study.

In the first case, corporal aspiration was used to decrease the blood that is trapped in the corpora due to the constriction. A rotating saw was used to incise the bottleneck in a full-thickness manner.
