Severe injury from neodymium: yttrium-aluminum-garnet laser therapy for penile condylomata acuminata.

Abstract
Laser therapy is widely accepted as a safe and effective means of treating genital condylomata acuminata. In this report, single-session neodymium: yttrium-aluminum-garnet laser treatment of extensive condylomata of the penis resulted in deep coagulation necrosis and sloughing of penile shaft skin and urethra. Management of this unfortunate occurrence is also described.
