“…A recent case report describes a patient self-injecting air into the penis using an air pump for autoerotic purposes, leading to generalized subcutaneous emphysema and neck pain. 5 Similarities between this case and ours are the suspected point of entry at the frenulum, complaints of pain away from the origin site due to air tracking along fascial planes, and overall clinical stability. Their patient was managed conservatively with pain control and antibiotics only.…”

Pneumoscrotum and subcutaneous emphysema make for impressive findings on examination and imaging. With ranging etiologies, thorough investigation into the source is essential to rule out potentially life threatening situations. We present a 31-year-old man with pneumoscrotum and extensive subcutaneous emphysema of his penis, abdomen, and perineum. History and physical exam didn't reveal a clear cause and he subsequently underwent surgical exploration showing no soft tissue infection. On post-operative day 1, he remained clinically stable and was discharged. Despite the usual benign nature of pneumoscrotum, full assessment is necessary to identify possible underlying conditions of significant morbidity and mortality.

Key Clinical MessageWe present a rare case of pneumoscrotum with subsequent subcutaneous emphysema in penetrating perineal injury with a tangential wound. It is important to diagnose the underlying disease and treat the cause. An examination under anesthesia is crucial for the diagnosis and management of the set of injuries.AbstractPneumoscrotum with subcutaneous emphysema in traumatic perineal injuries is an alarming sign and may indicate life‐threatening intraabdominal injuries or necrotizing fasciitis. We reported a case of pneumoscrotum and extensive subcutaneous emphysema of the abdomen and chest 2 days after admission. Pneumoscrotum was not seen on the initial Computerized tomographic scan.

Severe acute kidney injury due to violent sadomasochistic play

et al. 2018

Bondage and discipline, dominance and submission, sadism and masochism (BDSM) refers to a variety of primarily erotic practices. Although safety is crucial for most BDSM practitioners, there are violent forms that may cause serious injury. We present the case of 61-year-old man with no history of chronic kidney disease who developed severe acute anuric kidney injury following violent BDSM play. He had been strapped tightly onto a wooden spanking bench and then received approximately 1000 vigorous hits onto his bare buttocks and thighs. Subsequently, he developed haematuria and became anuric. Laboratory testing revealed strongly elevated serum creatinine levels. Kidney biopsy was unremarkable except mild tubulointerstitial damage. Urinary production increased spontaneously again after 4 days, and serum creatinine normalised over the course of 4 weeks. We believe that a combination of intermittent abdominal compartment syndrome and blunt kidney trauma may have been responsible for this severe acute kidney injury.
