It is caused by rapid blunt force to an erect penis, usually during vaginal intercourse, or aggressive masturbation. [4] It sometimes also involves partial or complete rupture of the urethra or injury to the dorsal nerves, veins and arteries. [5]
The superficial dorsal vein of the penis belongs to the superficial drainage system. It is located within the superficial dartos fascia, a continuation of the Colles' fascia, on the dorsal surface of the penis and, in contrast to the deep dorsal vein, it lies outside the deeper Buck's fascia. [2]
(A) A case of penile strangulation by a cable tie at the root of the penis. Both veins and arteries were compressed. (B) Penile ulcer at the root of the penis one week after the removal of the encircled object. The strangulation caused the permanent loss of sensation of the penis.
Arteries and veins of the penis. The penile artery (also known as the common penile artery) is the artery that serves blood to the penis. It is a terminal branch of the internal pudendal artery, along with the scrotal artery. It subdivides into three arteries, the bulbourethral artery, the dorsal artery of the penis and the cavernosal artery.
The condition involves the hardening of a lymph vessel connected to a vein in the penis. It can look like a thick cord and can feel like a hardened, almost calcified or fibrous, vein, however it tends to not share the common blue tint with a vein. It can be felt as a hardened lump or "vein" even when the penis is flaccid, and is even more ...
Blood can leave the erectile tissue only through a drainage system of veins around the outside wall of the corpus cavernosum. The expanding spongy tissue presses against a surrounding dense tissue (tunica albuginea) constricting these veins, preventing blood from leaving. The penis becomes rigid as a result.
Before you go into a tailspin of panic, know that “there are various possible causes of having red bumps on your penis, as penile and preputial skin (aka foreskin) tend to be sensitive areas of ...
It passes between the crus penis [2] and the pubic symphysis [citation needed] of the pelvis to reach the dorsal surface of the corpus cavernosus penis.
