Cavernosography after injection of papaverine was done in 25 impotent patients who showed equivocal evidence for either psychogenic or organic erectile dysfunction and who were strongly suspicious of having vasculogenic impotence. Diagnostic value of the pharmacocavernosography was evaluated. Venous leakages through deep dorsal vein were noted in 13 patients, out of whom 3 patients showed leakage also via deep vein, abnormal cavernosal vein or cavernoso-glans fistula. All the arteriogenic and psychogenic, but 38.5% of the venogenic impotents, showed full erection at 30 seconds after infusion of contrast medium was begun. The response to injection of the papaverine was well correlated with findings of the cavernosogram in venogenic and psychogenic impotents. Therefore, the pharmacocavernosography is valuable in differential diagnosis of the venogenic and arteriogenic impotence as well as in diagnosis of the vasculogenic impotence.

The development of myolysis has allowed number of gynecologic surgeons to treat myoma instead of hysterectomy or myomectomy. However not long time has passed since this operation started, little studies were conducted on this complication and side effect. Especially, there are not enough studies about complication and prognosis related pregnancy after myolysis. One of these complications, uterine rupture during pregnancy is not frequent, but fatal condition to both mother and fetus. We report a case of uterine rupture that occurred in early second-trimester who had been myolysis 22 months before pregnancy.
