[Penile plastic induration].
Plastic induration is briefly described and its similarity to Dupuytren's disease is discussed in an attempt to detect a common origin. Results obtained in histochemical investigation of this question appear to suggest that changes in the polysaccharide components of the fundamental substances of the connective tissue are involved.
