Abstrakt: Nonvenereal sclerosing lymphangitis of the penis is a rare condition involving the distal lymphatics of the penis. Its association with trauma has been shown. Although there is a minimal inflammatory response the etiology is unknown. Clinically, the patient notices a nontender, serpiginous nodular mass just proximal to the coronal sulcus. Most cases are self-limited and conservative management is indicated. Surgical excision is warranted for persistently symptomatic lesions.
