Traumatic Penile Pain: A Case of Dorsal Vein Thrombophlebitis after Intercourse

الملخص EN

Dorsal Vein thrombosis, also known as Mondor’s disease of the penis, is a superficial thrombophlebitis first described in the literature by Falco in 1955.

Mondor’s disease refers to a superficial thrombophlebitis of any locale.

Diagnosis can be made clinically with palpation of a mobile, cord-like thickening on dorsum of penis without associated evidence of inflammation, infection, or dermatologic changes.

Bedside ultrasonography with color Doppler can aid in the diagnosis of penile thrombophlebitis by revealing a noncompressible superficial vessel with normal surrounding flow.

The following case presentation details the etiology, diagnosis, and management of a particularly rare disease process.
