Urethral injury is a common form of urogenital trauma in males. Urethral injuries can be diagnosed with ease in emergency due to the presence of blood clot at external urethral meatus or inability to catheterize the urethra. Stricture formation is usual sequelae of such injuries. Uncontrolled urethral hemorrhage is a relatively rare complication which can present either as immediate or delayed. Such injuries can be managed conservatively in majority; however, if uncontrolled may require interventional management. Such patients usually have underlying pseudoaneurysm formation or arteriovenous fistula. Here, we are reporting a case of bulbar urethral injury which presented with delayed uncontrolled urethral hemorrhage. On angiography, pseudoaneurysm arising from left bulbourethral artery with active urethral extravasation was noted and was managed with coil embolization.

Traumatic urethral catheterization leading to bulbourethral artery pseudoaneurysm is exceedingly rare. We here report a case of 32-year-old male, who developed pseudoaneurysm of bulbourethral branch of right internal pudendal artery after traumatic urethral catheterization. The patient was initially managed conservatively.

Literature reports four successful cases where penile transplantation has been performed for cis men. To date, no penis transplantation has ever been attempted for trans men. Modern surgical techniques for penis reconstruction for (trans) men with gender incongruence present multiple drawbacks, and sometimes fail to meet patients' expectations.

Delayed persistent urethral hemorrhage caused by pseudoaneurysm of bulbourethral artery after straddle injury is a rare event. In this case report, we underline the cause, diagnostic methods, and image-guided treatment modality of straddle injury-induced symptomatic pseudoaneurysm of bulbourethral artery. A 44-year-old Indian man, with history of straddle injury, was managed conservatively with per urethral Foley catheter placement.
