Chordee is a condition in which the position of the glans penis is deflected upward or downward at the junction between the head and the shaft of the penis. Chordee usually is congenital and frequently occurs with hypospadias[1] Chordee is distinguished from Peyronie's Disease.

Chordee also may be caused by a circumcision operation.[2][3] Chordee is more common in Nigeria where child circumcision is carried out by traditional practitioners.[4]
