Abstract
- Arterial priapism occurred in an 8-year-old boy after blunt perineal trauma. Painless and pesistent erection developed immediately, and the penis was painless to palpation. By arterial blood gas analysis and color Doppler sonography, arterial priapism was confirmed. Internal pudendal angiography revealed an arteriocavernous fistula. The cavernosal artery was embolized with a coil and Gelfoam, and penile detumescence was achieved. Color Doppler sonography of the penis 6 days after embolization showed normal systolic and diastolic velocity. At 2-month follow-up, erectile capacity was similar to his pretraumatic status, and nocturnal erections were normal.
