Resumen

RIVERA-ASTORGA, Hugo et al. Medically refractory Mondor's disease of the penis. Rev. med. Hosp. Gen. Méx. [online]. 2025, vol.88, n.2, pp.96-98.  Epub 23-Mayo-2025. ISSN 2524-177X.  https://doi.org/10.24875/hgmx.24000003.

The case involves a 24-year-old male diagnosed with Mondor's disease, with a duration of 3 months and resistance to anti-inflammatory pharmacological treatment. The decision is made to pursue surgical management through the resection of the dorsal vein of the penis. Mondor's disease typically exhibits self-limiting characteristics. Surgical intervention is considered when the patient proves resistant to conservative treatment after 8 weeks. It is essential to opt for a minimally invasive surgical approach to mitigate complications such as fibrosis or erectile pain, thereby enhancing the patient's quality of life.
