[Lymphoedema of penis and scrotum: two observations (author's transl)]. 1981

M Samsoen, and J M Deschler, and M Servelle, and J C Raiga, and G Lelièvre, and J C Tardieu

Two cases of lymphoedema of penis and scrotum are reported: lymphanogiography is useful to distinguish between primary or secondary lymphoedema. In the first case, this is a primary tarda lymphoedema of penis and scrotum with hypoplastic lymphatics of the right leg. In the second case the lymphoedema follows repeated infection and paraphimosis. This infection may have worsened an already compromised lymphatic circulation. These genital elephantiasis are quite different from penile venereal edema, which disappears quickly after sexual abstinence. The operative treatment of lymphoedema is lymphangiectomy.
