An 84-year-old male presented to the emergency room with the chief complaint of painful, swollen penis following the use of a constriction ring to maintain penile erection. A high fever, chills and hypotension were recognized. Septic shock was presumed, and administration of antibiotics was started. Microbiologic cultures revealed Escherichia coli in blood. We herein report a rare but serious complication accompanying incarceration of the penis.
