Transrectal color Doppler ultrasonography for postejaculation hematuria.
A case involving an adult man with postejaculation hematuria (PEH) is described. We used transrectal color Doppler ultrasonography to evaluate periprostatic or intraprostatic vascular anomalies. We confirmed a vascular anomaly by angiography and embolized it. Periprostatic vascular anomaly may be a cause of PEH, and color Doppler ultrasonography is helpful for the initial studies of this entity.
