  • Title: "High-flow" priapism: treatment with superselective transcatheter embolization.
    Author: Walker TG, Grant PW, Goldstein I, Krane RJ, Greenfield AJ.
    Journal: Radiology; 1990 Mar; 174(3 Pt 2):1053-4. PubMed ID: 2305089.
    Abstract:
    Hemodynamically, most cases of priapism occur as a result of venous outflow obstruction producing engorgement of the corpora cavernosa. In a small number of patients, however, the cause is uncontrolled arterial inflow, often from direct arterial trauma. The authors report two cases of arterial or "high-flow" priapism that were successfully treated with selective transcatheter embolization with autologous clot.
