Peyronie's disease also known as penile fibromatosis and plastic induration of the penis is a cause of painful erection. It is rare with a prevalence rate of 0.4-9 %. It may be associated with Dupuytren's contracture. Though its etiopathogenesis is uncertain, presence of fibrin plaque and usual dorsal location is suggestive of aberrant healing response to minor penile trauma from shear stress. Ultrasound is useful in quantifying the fibrotic involvement in Peyronie's disease, determining the precise location of the lesion in the penis (dorsal / ventral / circumferential / septal), length, width and thickness of the plaque. It can detect fibrotic changes which have not yet calcified. We report two different cases of Peyronie's disease with calcification in intercorporeal septum alone and another case with calcified plaque in intercorporeal septum extending along the ventral aspect of both corpora cavernosa.
Localization of primitive neoplasms the retrorectal or presacral space is rare in adults as most of these tumors are congenital. Developmental cysts are included within the group of retrorectal congenital cystic neoplasms and are slowly-progressive cystic neoplasms. Because of their localization, their manifestation is delayed, despite their congenital nature. Their form of presentation is varied and is caused by compression of the surrounding organs or infectious complications of the cyst. In the present case, we have 55 yr old female with complain of low back painand pus dyscharge from perineal region. Further examination reveal 84*54*49mm lesion in posterior perianal region on either side of natal cleft with cutaneous opening within natal cleft. Post operative biopsy suggestive of epidermoid cyst.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
