R. Caleb Kovell, MD, discusses management strategies for acute refractory ischemic priapism, including shunting, tunneling, and prosthesis. Dr. Kovell begins his lecture by reviewing the erectile recovery windows and imaging techniques for establishing acute ischemic priapism.

Dr. Kovell then turns to effective treatment options after intracavernosal phenylephrine and corporal aspiration fail. He outlines various types of distal shunting, corporal tunneling, penoscrotal decompression, and early prosthesis placement.


Dr. Kovell concludes by discussing outpatient management of acute ischemic priapism. He highlights the importance of establishing the patient’s Sickle Cell Disease status, and cautioning against immediately prescribing PDE5is to outpatients.
