A corpus cavernosum penis is one of a pair of sponge-like regions of erectile tissue, which contain most of the blood in the penis during an erection.

Such a corpus is homologous to the corpus cavernosum clitoridis in the female; the body of the clitoris that contains erectile tissue in a pair of corpora cavernosa with a recognisably similar structure.
