Surgical correction of vasculogenic impotence in a patient after bilateral renal transplantation.
This article documents a vascular cause of erectile dysfunction in a patient with ligation of both internal iliac arteries after bilateral renal transplantation. The diagnosis was made by the noninvasive measurement of the penile arterial systolic pressure and confirmed by pelvic arteriography. Correction of the patient's impotence was accomplished by restoration of penile blood flow by a saphenous vein bypass graft between the external iliac and internal iliac arteries.
