Penile abscess is very rare. The pathogens are Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Tuberculosis, Staphylococcus aureus, etc. The penis is enlarged, yellow-white and may show abscess formation. The microscopic findings of penile abscess is that neutrophils are the predominant inflammatory cells and are present in the interstitium. The patient with penile abscess may present with fever, dysuria, and a painful penile enlargement. Physical examination may be possible even though there is pain and swelling, not making it difficult to evaluate the real extent of the lesion. To diagnose, doppler US findings are useful. We report a case of penile abscess due to the use of condom catheter.
