Abstract

A 57-year-old male presented to the emergency department due to sudden growth of a penile mass. On physical exam, the mass was located on the ventral surface of the penis at the level of the corona and measured 7cm × 4cm x 3.5cm. Ultrasound suggested that it was cystic in nature. The mass was surgically removed, and final pathology revealed a median raphe cyst.
