Abstract

Priapism is prolonged painful erection and can be seen as a sickle cell anemia complication.Thrombosis of the corpus cavernosum is a rare condition. A thirty years old male with of sickle cell anemia was admitted to our clinic with priapism. Corpus cavernosum aspiration and exchange transfusion were performed. Painful erection declined but the pain didn't improved. Corpus cavernosum thrombosis was detected and his pain relieved after systemic anticoagulation treatment. Thrombosis of corpus cavernozum must be in the mind especially for patients who have complaints despite conventional treatment methods.

Özet

Priapizm orak hücreli aneminin bir komplikasyonu olarak görülebilen uzamış ağrılı ereksiyondur. Korpus kavernozum trombozu nadir görülen bir durumdur.Otuz yaşında bir orak hücreli anemi hastası priapizm şikayeti ile kliniğimize başvurdu. Hastaya korpus kavernozum aspirasyonu ve exchange transfüzyon uygulandı. Hastanın ağrılı ereksiyonu geriledi ancak ağrısı düzelmedi. Hastada korpus kavernozum trombozu saptandı ve sistemik antikoagülasyon tedavisi sonrası hastanın ağrısı düzeldi. Özellikle konvansiyonel tedavi yöntemleri ile şikayetleri devam eden hastalarda korpus kavernozum trombozu akılda tutulmalıdır.
