Case Report: Hair Tourniquet Syndrome in Penis
Authors: Dimelsa Porras Serna, Alessandra Chambilla Rolando.
Abstract
Hair tourniquet syndrome is a rare condition caused by constrictive injuries to bodily appendages or textile threads. It is common in children, affecting fingers or toes, and very rarely affects genitals. We present the case of a 10-month-old infant with hair tourniquet syndrome in penis.
Conclusion: Timely diagnosis and management prevent necrosis of the affected area due to strangulation.
