RESUMEN
High flow priapism is a nonischemic form of priapism. This results from unregulated, continuous arterial inflow to the lacunar spaces by trauma or idiopathic causes. It is clinically recognizable because the erection is painless and coporal aspiration yields bright red blood with a high pO2. We report a case of arterial high flow priapism secondary to perineal blunt trauma in 29-year-old man treated with embolization of cavernosal artery.

High-flow priapism is caused by sustained arterial inflow into the spaces from a lacerated cavernosal artery. This typically follows perineal trauma. Iatrogenic high-flow priapism occasionally follows the treatment of low-flow priapism and is a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge. Herein, we reported a case of iatrogenic high-flow priapism which developed after treatment of-flow priapism.
