Strangulated Male External Genitalia by Steel Ring: A Safe Rescue Case Report

Abstract

ZeHong Lu and KuanHsun Huang  

We reported strangulated male external genitalia by three steel rings for 24 hours. It is difficult to manage without adequate device and some rescue devices may bring possible iatrogenic injury to genital organ. Steel ring was removed by hydraulic cutter instead of angle grinder which was applied in our previous experience and mentioned by literature. Angle grinder may bring cutting or thermal injury to patient or medical staff. It may be safer method to rescue strangulation with hydraulic cutter instead of angle grinder especially in those patients with blood borne disease. However, management may be individualized for difference material and shape of constricting device.
