Glanular Ischemia following Glans Penis Augmentation: A Rare Case Report
Although vascular complications are rare after hyaluronic acid filling into the glans penis, early diagnosis and treatment are crucial. Patients should be informed about possible adverse events. The main treatment method for vascular complications is urgent hyaluronidase injection. In addition, prevention of clot propagation with oral aspirin and vasodilatation treatments should be applied. In the glans penis ischemia after hyaluronic acid injection, early diagnosis and immediate hyaluronidase administration can reverse ischemia without necrosis or surgical intervention.
