Endofalloprosthesis with a one-component semirigid prosthesis in a patient with an arteriovenous fistula of the cavernous artery and the development of priapism
Abstract
Phalloprosthesis in patients with various durations and different hemodynamic types of priapism is a disputable problem. Rigid penile prosthesis placement may be deemed to be a possible method for the torpid treatment of ischemic priapism, particularly if other medical and surgical procedures have been ineffective and the time of pathological erection is over 36–72 hours. The paper gives an example of how such a patient was treated. Imaging techniques, such as color Doppler mapping of the penile vessels, selective iliacography, and compression sono elastography, were used for diagnosis. These techniques could make a correct diagnosis and provide a rationale for endofalloprosthesis.
