Abstract

Summary— Injury to the prepuce is uncommon. A total of 32 patients were treated within a 3‐year period. A difference in the aetiology between boys and adults was noted. Accidental injury to the prepuce occurred in 6 boys, with zipper injuries being the commonest among children. Coital and self‐inflicted injuries accounted for 85% of adult cases. In patients with coital injuries, predisposing phimosis or a short frenulum was common. Copyright © 1989, Wiley Blackwell. All rights reserved
