          Abstract

          Male external genitalia injury with testicular loss is relatively uncommon in civilian practice. Testicular amputation is usually found with military trauma and self-mutilation. However, they do occur while operating machines for domestic purposes. The standard protocols for the management of traumatic testicular amputation are lacking. The management is focused on resuscitation of the patient and restoration of testicular function with acceptable cosmesis. Here, we present a case of a 45-year-old man with traumatic right testicular amputation while he was using a thresher for rice cutting.

          Highlights

          • Traumatic testicular amputation is an uncommon entity in civilian practice.

          • The testis can be repositioned in an ectopic location due to the laxity of cord structures.

          • Testicular injury can occur by machinery due to its inexperience use.

            Clinical characteristics and surgical outcomes of penetrating external genital injuries.

            Penetrating external genital injuries, although uncommon, may present complex problems for the urologic and trauma surgeon. A paucity of data exists on the incidence, clinical characteristics, and management outcomes of these injuries because few institutions have the volume to report their experience.
