title: Urinary retention with glans hypervascularization after penile arterialization.
abstract: Penile revascularization is a relatively new treatment for impotence. Glanular hypervascularization is a known complication of a venous arterialization procedure and it requires surgery for cure. A case in which delayed glanular hypervascularization caused urinary retention is presented. Ligation of the distal deep dorsal vein via the retro-coronal plexus resulted in cure.
