Abstract:
According to the literature, straddle injuries of the perineum may result in arteriosinusoidal fistula and secondary high-flow priapism. We report a case of a 23-year-old man who developed a traumatic pseudoaneurysm of the cavernosal artery, secondary to straddle injury, and presented with painless priapism. It was treated successfully with superselective microcoil embolization and the priapism resolved.
