We treated a 65-year-old Japanese man with a giant penile lymphedema due to chronic penile strangulation with a rubber band. He was referred to our hospital with progressive penile swelling that had developed over a period of 2 years from chronic use of a rubber band placed around the penile base for prevention of urinary incontinence. Under a diagnosis of giant penile lymphedema, we performed resection of abnormal penile skin weighing 4.8 kg, followed by a penile plasty procedure. To the best of our knowledge, this is only the seventh report of such a case worldwide, with the present giant penile lymphedema the most reported.

Degenerative arterial aneurysms can occur in any vascular territory. However, they are exceedingly rare in the axillary artery. Complications of axillary artery aneurysms may result in acute vascular insufficiency and neurological deficits. Prompt treatment should be employed in the management of this condition. We report a case of an atraumatic degenerative axillary artery aneurysm that was treated with transaxillary open surgical bypass.
