CASE REPORT This article describes a case report with a review of the symptomatology diagnosis, and treatment of thrombophlebitis in the superficial dorsal vein of the penis. Penile Mondor’s disease is a benign condition, and after appropriate therapy, near complete recovery takes place within three weeks. DISCUSSION Thrombophlebitis of the superficial dorsal vein of the penis (Penile Mondor’s disease) is a rare, but important clinical diagnosis that any physician, and in particular general practitioners, should be able to recognize. Indeed, correct diagnosis and consequent reassurance can help to control the anxiety typically experienced by patients suffering from the disease.

History Of

Mondor's disease of the penis, otherwise known as superficial thrombophlebitis (STP) or thrombosis of the dorsal vein, is an under-reported benign condition, the aetiology of which is poorly understood. It is characterized by a sudden, indurated swelling of the vein, often occurring after vigorous sexual activity. We report a case of Mondor's disease occurring 24h following a 15h flight. This gentleman also reported a history of STP of his left lower limb varicose veins following a similar-length flight three years previously. In the absence of any other clear predisposing factor, we propose long-haul flight as an important factor contributing to the development of dorsal vein thrombosis.

Mondor’s disease of the penis is an under-reported condition caused by superficial thrombophlebitis of the dorsal vein or thrombosis of the deep venous network of the penis. This is a benign, self-limiting condition, characterized by a sudden, indurated swelling of the aforementioned veins. The possible causes comprise traumatism, neoplasms, excessive sexual activity, or coagulation inherited deficit. An accompanied lymphangitis is discussed, eventually as a distinct variety. The differential diagnosis must be established by the means of ultrasound, which is the imaging diagnostic technique of choice. We describe the case of Mondor’s sclerotizing lymphangitis secondary to recurrent episodes of genitourinary infection previously diagnosed as recurrent superficial Mondor thrombophlebitis of the penis.

Introduction: Paresthesia is usually characterized by a transient loss of sensitivity in the area covered by the affected nerve. Different causes may lead to this occurrence; among them, the injury of nerve structures during the extraction of third molars. The sensitivity recovery depends on the regeneration of the nerve fibers, and in most cases it occurs spontaneously. In some situations, there is a need for a more invasive and expensive treatments to the patient. Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the spontaneous remission of the inferior alveolar nerve paresthesia. Case report: We studied a 34 year-old patient, white, male, which presented paresthesia of the inferior alveolar nerve after extraction of the lower right third molar. We chose to wait for the spontaneous return of the sensitivity, which occurred between the first and second postoperative month. Conclusion: The complete recovery of the sensitivity does not occur in all cases, even with the recommended treatments. So the best way to deal with paresthesia is prevention, where the dentist must perform the correct diagnosis with the aid of the necessary additional tests; besides having skill and dexterity in handling the instruments, so that the surgery would be performed safely and without any complications for the patient.Descriptors: Paresthesia; Remission, Spontaneous; Mandibular Nerve.
