Two personal cases of Non venereal Lymphangitis of the Penis are presented in 23 and 28 men, and 38 cases from the literature are reviewed. This benign self-limiting condition is not too well known among dermatologists and urologists. The clinical changes, in particular noted by palpation are characteristic: painless firm cartilaginous cord freely movable behind the corona of glans penis in the coronary sulcus. The inguinal lymph nodes are not involved. The microscopic features in one of our patients demonstrated that the lesion results from cystic dilatation of secondary organization of the thrombus. The etiology is unknown. We favour the mecanical trauma as an important factor based on excessive sexual activity of the patients.
本文报告了2例分别为23岁和28岁男性的非性病性阴茎淋巴管炎病例,并复习了文献中的38例。这种良性自限性疾病在皮肤科医生和泌尿科医生中并不太为人所知。临床变化,尤其是触诊时的表现具有特征性:在冠状沟处,龟头冠状缘后方可自由移动的无痛性坚硬软骨样条索。腹股沟淋巴结未受累。我们其中一位患者的显微镜检查特征显示,病变是由血栓继发组织的囊性扩张引起的。病因不明。基于患者的过度性活动,我们认为机械性创伤是一个重要因素。
