An Experience of Treating Stuttering Priapism

Priapism is a clinical manifestation of disordered erection physiology and results from a combination of disturbances involving the regulatory mechanisms governing penile tumescence and detumescence. I present here a case of stuttering priapism and its treatment for over 20 years. Antiandrogens were main stay of the treatment and helped to improve his symptoms and preserved his function. Over these 20 years other treatment options are available and antiandrogens are no longer first line treatment agents for such patients. I’ll also review the newer options for treatment of this condition. Keywords: Stuttering priapism; Antiandrogen; Cyproterone acetate.
