Fig. 9From: Utility of contrast enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) in penile traumaPenile haematoma with pseudoaneurysm treated (same case in Fig. 8). Selective arteriography of the right cavernous artery was performed (a), showing the pseudoaneurysm with active bleeding (open arrow). Supra-selective embolisation was performed with a gelatin sponge (yellow arrows) (b). CEUS is performed immediately after the procedure (c), illustrating the haematoma (between arrowheads). There is now the absence of the previously documented pseudoaneurysm with a residual stump noted (arrow). The hyperechogenic material (yellow arrows) visible on the low MI B-mode image is the embolisation gelatin sponge material. The patient’s priapism resolved within 24 h post-embolisation. CEUS 2 weeks after the procedure (d) shows a decrease in the size of the haematoma (between arrowheads) with no pseudoaneurysm visible. One and a half months after embolisation (e), the appearance of the penis on ultrasound is normal. The patient reported a fully recovered erectile function 8 weeks post-embolisationBack to article page
