Sumario:Chylorrhea, a chylous (white viscid) discharge from the external urethral penile opening, is unrelated to urination and is a rare presentation of lymphangioma circumscriptum in the penis that can significantly impair a patient’s quality of life and psychological well-being. Herein, we present a case of recurrent chylorrhea that was detected using diagnostic tools and treated using the deep external pudendal artery perforator flap in the inner thigh, which is extremely rich in lymphatic vessels and lymph nodes.
