A 29-year-old mentally ill farmer underwent microsurgery for the resuturing of the penis and testicles which he himself had chopped off with an ax. Microsurgery of the urethra, corpora cavernosa, arteries and veins was begun 10 h after the trauma. The veins, arteries and testicles were anastomosed and covered with a free flap of the scrotum skin. Three weeks after surgery, the anastomosed tested showed good healing. However, in 65% of the penis, necrosis had occurred.
