A 62-year-old male presented with a rare case of ligamentum flavum hematoma manifesting as low back pain and gait difficulty beginning 1 month before consulting our institute. He had no history of lumbar spine surgery or lumbar puncture. However, he might have suffered forgotten back injury while practicing martial arts. Magnetic resonance imaging showed a heterogeneous intensity mass lesion with a cystic component at the L3-4 levels. The lesion was totally removed through a hemilaminectomy. Intraoperative and histological findings confirmed the diagnosis of old hematoma with granulomatous change in the ligamentum flavum. Postoperatively, his low back pain and gait difficulty resolved within a few days.
OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this presentation is to illustrate the normal sonographic anatomy of the penis and various imaging manifestations of penile trauma. METHODS: Penile trauma cases were collected and reviewed retrospectively from our archive. RESULTS: The normal sonographic anatomy of the penis and various pathologic conditions of patients with penile trauma are discussed. CONCLUSIONS: Sonography (especially with color Doppler sonography) is a useful imaging method for evaluating penile anatomy and various pathologic features in patients with penile trauma.
