Abstract
Inflammation of the penile corpus cavernosum is an unusual condition m ost often associated with an infectious process. We report on a diabet ic man with localized inflammation of the corpus cavernosum resulting from acute occlusion of the cavernous artery. Diagnosis was made by ex clusion and ultimately confirmed by penile angiography. Conservative m easures led to resolution of this process.
