N2  - Gunshot injuries to the genitourinary system are extremely rare among trauma cases and represent a complex clinical scenario to physicians. This rare case involves a 20-year-old male with a retained bullet in his penis following a close-range, low-velocity gunshot wound to the right lateral thigh. Our case report examines this unique clinical scenario and the diagnostic approach that should be taken to decrease the chances of negative cosmetic and functional outcomes.<p />  <p>Language: en</p>
