Penile fibromatosis (Peyronie’s disease) is an acquired benign condition without known systemic sequelae with presenting symptoms that include the presence of a plaque or induration of the penile shaft, penile curvature or deformity during erection, penile pain and erectile dysfunction. During the past decade significant advances have been made in understanding the pathophysiology of the disease, testing novel medical treatments for Peyronie’s disease and improving the surgeons ability to successfully reconstruct the deformed penis. We report a case of a 40-year-old male who presented with penile pain and curvature during erection. We report this case of Peyronie’s disease for its rarity.Downloads
