The patient's penis has been removed, the urethra damaged, and a catheter was reserved during the surgery.

Patient's question:

Cause of Injury: Injured while operating a drill machine in a coal mine underground, entangled and injured by the drill rod.
Injury Details: The penis was torn off at the base, the scrotal skin was completely torn off, the left spermatic cord vein was ruptured, the left testicle was torn off, the right testicle was bruised, and severe damage was caused to the urethra below the membranous part.

Doctor's answer:

The opening of the urethra above the scrotum is technically feasible and is the requirement for the surgery. The purpose is to ensure the resolution of urination issues, rather than to accommodate the urethra being above the penis, which could lead to a rapid recurrence of disease after surgery.
