Posttraumatic high-flow priapism treated by N-butyl-cyanoacrylate embolization

F Numan et al. Cardiovasc Intervent Radiol. 1996 Jul-Aug.

Abstract

A patient with high-flow priapism was treated by transcatheter embolization of a posttraumatic left cavernosal arteriovenous fistula using N-butyl-cyanoacrylate (NBCA), resulting in complete detumescence. Erectile function has been preserved during a 3-month follow-up. Only two patients with NBCA embolization for high-flow priapism have been reported previously.
