Abstract
Penile entrapment is a rather rare pathology and requires urgent treatment to preserve the organ function. The article presents a clinical case of entrapment of the penile root and scrotum by a metal ring with tissue changes like a pressure sore directly under the ring. Possible methods of emergency surgical treatment in this urgent situation are discussed.
