“…Patients complain of a cord-like induration, which is often painful, in the dorsal aspect of the penis, and this pain can be constant or episodic.

In the hilum of the penis, these vessels pass between the pillars and the bulbar region receiving branches from each of them and joining with the internal pudendal veins [5]. Apart from the erectile structures, vessels of the penile skin also originate from the external pudendal branch of the femoral artery.…”
