SUMMARYA 23-year-old male patient with sickle-cell disease reported his third episode of priapism complicated by the presence of a corpus cavernosum abscess after the performance of a Winter procedure 20 days prior to his presentation. While in hospital for 11 days, two penile needle aspirations and three surgical drainages were performed with associated antibiotic therapy. He evolved with erectile dysfunction refractory to drug therapy and his infectious condition improved. An early penile prosthesis implantation followed after the use of a vacuum pump in an attempt to decrease the fibrotic process of the corpora cavernosa. Final results were positive. BACKGROUND

“…While many abscesses of the corpus cavernosum are idiopathic [15,16,17,18,19,20,21], cases have been described in association with priapism [2,11], alprostadil or papaverine injections [1,2,3,4,5], trauma [9], tuberculosis [22,23], penile prosthesis placement [6], and intra-abdominal abscesses [10]. There have also been case reports of cavernosal abscesses following perineal [8,9] and perianal [7] abscess drainage, presumably via extension through Buck's fascia.…”

Corpus cavernosum abscesses are uncommon with only 23 prior reports in the literature. Several precipitating factors for cavernosal infections have been described including injection therapy for erectile dysfunction, trauma, and priapism. Common causal organisms include Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococci, and Bacteroides. We report a unique case of a corpus cavernosum abscess due to proctitis with hematological seeding and review the literature on cavernosal abscesses.

“…Penile abscesses are relatively rare, and consequently often merit case reports in the literature. [1][2][3] Here we present a case of a 62-year-old man with an MRI and exam concerning for possible penile fracture without the typical sexual history associated with penile fracture. This was later revealed to be a penile abscess likely related to relatively remote history of Trimix injection.…”
