Bilateral superselective arterial microcoil embolisation in delayed post-traumatic high flow priapism.
High flow arteriogenic priapism is uncommon and usually occurs after trauma to the genitoperineal area. The onset of prolonged erection can be delayed and is often relatively pain free. Arteriography in this case illustrated the causative bilateral arteriocavernosal fistulae and pseudoaneurysms. Treatment consisted of staged bilateral superselective metallic microcoil embolisations, resulting i...
متن کاملPost traumatic high-flow arterial priapism. The need for increased awareness among health care professionals.
High flow arterial priapism is a rare urological emergency. Presentation, diagnosis and institution of definitive management are often delayed. We describe our experience with this diagnostic entity and reviewed the literature to define possible reasons for the delayed diagnosis and management. We report two patients (10 years and 35 years old) that presented following blunt perineal trauma. Th...
متن کاملAutologous blood-clot embolisation of cavernosal artery pseudoaneurysm causing delayed high-flow priapism
BACKGROUND High-flow priapism is a rare condition characterized by a prolonged and painless erection. Since it may permanently impair erectile function, it must be managed and treated as soon as possible, in order to restore potency. The case we are presenting here was successfully treated by embolizing the penile artery using an autologous clot. CASE REPORT A case of delayed painless high-fl...
متن کاملPost-traumatic high-flow priapism treated by endovascular embolization using N-butyl-cyanoacrylate
BACKGROUND Priapism, persistent erection without arousal, can be classified into low-flow (venous or ischemic) and high-flow (arterial or non-ischemic). The diagnosis of high-flow priapism can be confirmed by colour Doppler and arteriography and it is usually treated by the endovascular embolization. CASE REPORT We present a case of a 20-year-old man with a post-traumatic high-flow priapism a...
متن کاملChronic post-traumatic high-flow priapism treated with temporary gelatin sponge embolization
We report the case of a 26-year-old man who presented with a non-painful priapism with a history of 3 months permanent erection after suffering a perineal trauma. An arteriocorporal fistula with a turbulent flow between the right cavernosal artery and the corpus cavernosum, conclusive for a high-flow priapism was initially detected by colour Doppler ultrasound. A superselective embolization wit...
