Abstract
-
Sclerosing lymphangitis of the penis is a rare disorder characterized by painless. firm. cord-like lesion in the coronary sulcus of the penis. Although sexual trauma may be causative factor the etiology is unknown. Histologic findings reveal hypertrophy and sclerosis of lymphatic vessel wells, and some cases show thrombus formation within dilated vessels. Most cases are self-limited and conservative management is indicated. We report two cases of sclerosing lymphangitis of the penis in a 37-year-old man and a 28-year-old man.
