چکیده

Non-venereal sclerosing lymphangitis of the penis is a rare condition that affects the distal lymphatics of this organ. It has been reported to be frequently associated with trauma to this area and, although it has a minimum inflammatory component, its etiology is unknown. A serpinginous nodular lesion in the sulcus coronarius penis may be observed by the patient. Because it is generally self-limiting, treatment is initially conservative and surgical excision is performed only if symptomatic lesions persist. The present study reports an additional case. The literature is reviewed and the possible etiopathogenic mechanisms and therapeutic alternatives are discussed.
