Abstract

Herein, two cases of penile Mondor's disease are described. The first was a 45-year-old man who complained of a small subcutaneous induration, with localized discomfort at the distal rim of the coronal sulcus of the penis. The other was a 46-year-old man who complained of similar symptoms of penile induration. The lesions were surgically removed under local anesthesia, and found to be thromboses of the penile superficial dorsal vein. As a result, the diagnoses of Mondor's disease of the penis were confirmed.
