title: [Spontaneous autoembolization in a child with high-flow post-traumatic priapism].
abstract: There are two sort of priapism: the venous or low flow priapism, that is usually painful, and the arterial or high flow one, painless and rare, especially in childhood. We present a case of a boy 5 years old, who 6 days after to suffer a perineal closed traumatism, had a painless and arterial priapism, with aneurism and fistula of the dorsal penile arteria, that was resolute spontaneously through self-embolization, 11 days after. We review the bibliography of 14 cases of arterial posttraumatic priapism in childhood, without find any case resolute by spontaneous self-embolization.
