Bilateral partial thrombosis of the corpus cavernosum associated with the use of a stationary bike. Case report and literature review

Partial and segmental thrombosis of the corpus cavernosum is a rare pathology not entirely understood, however, there are some triggers that have been associated in its appearance. We present a case of a 36-year-old patient with bilateral partial thrombosis of the corpus cavernosum, without priapism, after use of a stationary exercise bike. Ultrasound and magnetic resonance findings are shown, in which bilateral involvement stands out. The patient received conservative management with good response. This pathology is idiopathic and multiple factors have been associated to its origin, one of them being repetitive trauma due to sports activity.
