We report a penile Mondor's disease after endovenous laser ablation with a 1470 nm diode laser of the great saphenous vein with additional foam sclerotherapy of distal tributaries. We administered body-weight adjusted full dose of low-molecular weight heparin (enoxaparin) in a therapeutic dosage for 10 days. In addition, anti-inflammatory therapy with diclofenac-sodium 75 mg twice a day for the following five days was initiated. One month later, the patient reported no further discomfort or pain and the thrombophlebitis of the superficial dorsal penile vein had sonographically disappeared completely.

We present the first case of retrograde ablation of the small saphenous vein to treat active venous ulceration. A 73-year-old gentleman with complicated varicose veins of the left leg and a non-healing venous ulcer despite previous successful endovenous treatment to his left great saphenous vein underwent mechanochemical ablation of his small saphenous vein with the ClariVein® system, under local anaesthetic, using a retrograde cannulation technique. Post-operatively the patient had improved symptomatically and the ulcer size had reduced. This report highlights that patients with small saphenous vein incompetence and active ulceration can be treated successfully with retrograde mechanochemical ablation.
