A pensioner who broke his penis in two places while having sex in a motel was admitted to hospital with his manhood resembling an 'aubergine-sized 'saxophone'.

The 62-year-old surnamed Liao, from Taichung in Taiwan, reportedly heard a loud crack as his member fractured into three segments.

His lover rushed Liao to Feng-Yuan Hospital, Ministry Of Health And Welfare.

Doctor Kuo Chia-cheng, a urologist, said: 'It was shaped like a saxophone and was the size of an aubergine.'

He added, 'When he was admitted, his penis was already bruised and swollen due to the double fracture.'

The injury is caused by the rupturing of the penis's enveloping membrane tunica albuginea.

The medic and his team mended his membrane in order for him to regain his erectile function, with Liao said to be recovering well following surgery.

Doctor Kuo said the retiree should not suffer any long-term effects from his unfortunate injury.

He noted: 'From my experience, the earlier a patient has surgery, the less likely he is to be affected by erectile dysfunction in the future.'

He added: 'Some post-surgery effects include irregular erections or a deformed penis, but the chances of that happening are quite low - roughly 3 to 5 percent.'

Doctor Kuo also revealed: 'All the penile fracture patients I've met suffered their injury during woman-on-top intercourse.'

The medic said men with a suspected fracture should keep an ice pack on their penis before immediately seeking medical attention.
