[Posttraumatic high-flow priapism in prepubertal age]. | LitMetric

High flow priapism is an infrequent entity, generally following traumatic injuries in the genito-perineal area. Anamnesis, cavernous bodies blood gasometry and Doppler are the basic diagnostic tools for these condition. Therapeutical management is considerably different from that used for low flow venous priapism. Selective arteriography of the internal pudendal artery allows to locate the arterial lesion and, at the same time, to perform supraselective embolization of the lacerated cavernous artery which is currently considered the choice treatment. This paper presents the case report of a ten-year old patient successfully resolved through application of angioradiologic procedures.

This report presents two pediatric cases of post-traumatic high-flow priapism managed using a conservative approach. The first case involved a six-year-old boy who developed a persistent, painful penile erection three days after sustaining perineal trauma from a seesaw incident. Color Doppler ultrasonography revealed an arteriovenous fistula with a localized hematoma.

Article Synopsis
  • Chronic leg ulcers can happen from untreated arteriovenous fistula (AVF) and are usually rare and hard to notice.
  • A 31-year-old man had a gunshot injury 12 years ago, resulting in a leg ulcer that lasted 2 years.
  • After surgery to fix the AVF, the ulcer healed completely in 6 months, showing that catching these issues early is very important to avoid more problems.

Spontaneous thrombosis of post-traumatic direct carotid-cavernous fistula.

September 2024

Department of Neurology, Neurology, Airlangga University Faculty of Medicine, Dr. Soetomo General Hospital, Mayjend Prof. Dr. Moestopo No. 6-8, Surabaya 60264, Surabaya-Indonesia.

Article Synopsis
  • Carotid cavernous fistula (CCF) is an abnormal connection between the carotid artery and cavernous sinus, often resulting from trauma, and usually requires endovascular embolization due to the low likelihood of spontaneous resolution.
  • The case discussed involves a 42-year-old man who suffered head trauma, experienced seizures, and presented with visual symptoms, leading to the identification of a Barrow type A CCF.
  • Remarkably, after a year, a follow-up angiography showed that the CCF resolved spontaneously, suggesting that thrombosis in the cavernous sinus might facilitate this rare outcome.

Priapism is defined as a form of erectile dysfunction characterized by a prolonged and involuntary penile erection, either partial or complete, occurring without sexual stimulation and lasting for more than 4 hours. Its incidence is estimated to be 0.5-0.

BACKGROUND High-flow (non-ischemic) priapism is a rare urological condition usually related to blind trauma to the penis or perineum causing an arterial-lacunar fistula. It can be treated conservatively, but in some cases when conservative treatment fails, the interventional approach is indicated. In the past, only surgical treatment was available, which was associated with a significant risk of complications.
