Abstract:
Congenital penile curvature without chordee is a rare anomaly and a surgically correctable lesion which can usually distinguished from chordee and other acquired causes of penile curvature. The lesion is usually found in young men in the third decade of life. The curvature is usually present since birth but there are no complaints until puberty. Physical examination with the penis in the flaccid state is usually normal. We report a case of ventral curvature of the penis in 20-year-old-male. Correction of the penile curvature with Nesbit`s operation was Performed.
