Abstract
Mondor's disease can manifest itself in the penile dorsal vein. It is a rare complaint with a quoted incidence of 1.39%. We report a case of a 41-year-old man who has sex with men (MSM), who presented with penile swelling and painful erections following intensive and vigorous sexual activity. He was found to have a thrombosis of the penile dorsal veins. He was managed with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and sexual abstinence and his symptoms resolved in the following two weeks. Practitioners need to beware of Mondor's disease as a differential diagnosis in the presence of penile swelling and not underestimate the anxiety it can cause the patient.
