Surgical treatment options for ED have evolved over time and currently include the use of inflatable penile prosthesis (IPP) and malleable penile prosthesis. IPP insertion is usually met with good patient satisfaction. However, complications of device insertion can include corporal perforation, urethral injury, cylinder erosion or extrusion, infection, and mechanical failure, to name a few. Our patient presented with device malfunction and intraoperative assessment showed the IPP tubing twisted at the levels of the reservoir on the first operation and the level of the cylinder and scrotal pump on the second operation. The twisting of the tubing resulted in a nonfunctioning IPP as the fluid was unable to fill the cylinders resulting in an erection.

Herein, this study is aimed at presenting a case of AHA diagnosed based on hematuria and reviewing patients who were diagnosed with AHA due to hematuria. A 67-year-old woman was referred to Atsugi City Hospital with painless gross hematuria that began 4 weeks before presentation. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography (eCT) revealed an approximately 2 cm mass in the right renal pelvis, and the patient's activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) was elevated (61.4 s). The day after the endoscopic biopsy, the patient was in shock due to a large retroperitoneal hematoma. Although her condition stabilized after intravenous radioembolization, she underwent emergency surgeries several times because of rebleeding within the next 3 weeks. At that time, APTT was more prolonged at 106.4 s, and the FVIII:C level was 2%. Mixing tests showed an upwardly convex curve after 2-h incubation, indicating the presence of an inhibitor. Factor VIII inhibitor titer was ≥5.1 Bethesda unit (BU)/mL. A combined product of Plasma-Derived Factors VIIa and X (pd-FVIIa/FX), as second-line hemostatic therapy, as well as cyclophosphamide (CYP), were administered after Recombinant Activated Factor VIIa (rFVIIa) had been ineffective. Following this, the Factor VIII inhibitor titer was undetectable, FVIII:C levels were restored, and APTT decreased to within the normal range. Gross hematuria was significantly alleviated. However, the patient died of cytomegalovirus and fungal infections due to prolonged immunosuppressive therapy. Although AHA diagnosed based on hematuria may have a better prognosis than others, there have been occasional cases with severe outcomes.

Different management approaches exist, including urinary diversion with immediate versus delayed urethroplasty/fistula repair. We present our case series to add to our experience to the literature. Three patients aged 18-44 presented with ballistic posterior urethra injuries from GSW. Initial management involved urethral catheter placement, with one patient requiring operative placement of urethral and suprapubic catheters (SPTs). Complications included recurrent membranous stricture, urinary retention, rectourethral fistula, and erectile dysfunction (ED). Posterior urethral injuries from GSW are complex as they can be either isolated or affect adjacent organs. Bladder, ureteral, and urethral injuries must be ruled out. Unlike bladder neck injuries, immediate urethroplasty/fistula repair would be very challenging and not advised for standard prostatic or membranous injuries. Urethral catheter or suprapubic tube is recommended and can result in fistula closure and urethral patency. It is critical to maintain close follow-up with the patient due to the possibility of stricture recurrence.
