Idiopathic partial thrombosis of the corpus cavernosum.
We report the case of an idiopathic partial segmental thrombosis of the left corpus cavernosum. The diagnosis was made by physical examination and radiological imaging. The patient was treated conservatively with aspirin, and follow-up imaging at 3 and 7 months revealed mild persistent thrombosis. Erectile function was maintained at 1 year follow-up.
