The mechanism of ambulatory venous pressure reduction is complex and multifactorial. The importance of venous wall characteristics as a determinant of postexercise pressure has not been previously appreciated. Changes in venous wall property after a thrombotic process, for example, could conceivably influence ambulatory venous pressure and recovery time in the absence of reflux.
Partial priapism is a rare condition. Unlike the typical cases of priapism where the diagnosis is obvious on physical examination, partial priapism generally is initially seen as a perineal mass, and the diagnosis is more difficult. In our case, computed tomography helped make a differential diagnosis of partial priapism.
We report a case that demonstrates that percutaneous catheter drainage may be considered as an alternative to surgical intervention in the treatment of urinomas, especially when there is no persistent ureteral obstruction.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
