Haslam reports the case of a man who slipped on the greasy deck of a whaler, and falling forward with great violence upon a large knife used to cut blubber, completely severed his penis, beside inflicting a wound in the abdomen through which the intestines protruded.

After recovery there was a distinct increase of sexual desire and frequent nocturnal emissions.

In the same report there is recorded the history of a man who had entirely lost his penis, but had supplied himself with an ivory succedaneum.

This fellow finally became so libidinous that it was necessary to exclude him from the workhouse, of which he was an inmate.
Norris gives an account of a private who received a gunshot wound of the penis while it was partly erect.

The wound was acquired at the second battle of Fredericksburg.
