Gangrene of penis is an uncommon, debilitating and fulminant condition of infective origin which is characterized by sudden scrotal edema with rapid progression leading to exposure of underlying content. It is usually localized to scrotum and penis, with an occasional extension to anterior abdominal wall(1). The usual organism is an anaerobic Streptococcus synergistic with other organisms(1). A 42 years old male presented with fever and pain and brownish-black discoloration of penis of 2 days and difficulty in passing urine with dysuria. Our case is a very rare as gangrene involved just penis without involvement of scrotum with pan anterior urethral stricture in a BXO patient which was managed by hospitalization, early emergency debridement of gangrenous part, drainage of abscess, supra pubic catheterization, parenteral broad spectrum antibiotics and daily wound care.
