Abstract
Penile zipper injuries have been reported occurring usually in the pediatri c population, and occasionally in adults. Usually, the zipper can be dislod ged with mineral oil or by breaking the median bar. When these attempts fai l, a small elliptical incision may be used to remove the zipper and any dev italized tissue. Copyright (C) 2000 S. Karger AG, Basel.
