Rapid adoption of penoscrotal decompression for ischemic priapism in private practice
Refractory ischemic priapism is a difficult to treat clinical entity for which there are a host of shunt procedures identified, but no singular agreed upon technique for surgical therapy.

| description | Refractory ischemic priapism is a difficult to treat clinical entity for which there are a host of shunt procedures identified, but no singular agreed upon technique for surgical therapy. Recent literature describes success using a penoscrotal decompression technique that uses a similar dissection of a penoscrotal penile prosthesis placement. We demonstrate that this technique is easily applicable in the private practice setting as it uses a familiar setup to most general urologists in our case report. |
