    Journal: J Urol; 1993 Nov; 150(5 Pt 1):1502-3. PubMed ID: 8411438.
    Abstract:
    We report the successful treatment of an abscess in the corpus cavernosum of a paraplegic man on intracavernous papaverine injection therapy by means of percutaneous aspiration and intravenous antibiotics. After 3 months of intracavernous pharmacotherapy the patient experienced good erections again and only minimal fibrosis could be found on palpation.
