摘要：

Priapism is a painful penile erection unrelated to sexual desire. It can be graded as low flow (ischemic) or high flow (non-ischemic). Low-flow priapism accounts for most cases of priapism in SCD individuals. Stuttering priapism is an ischemic variant characterized by short repeated episodes of intermittent, self-restricted priapism, which are also known as chronic ischemic priapism. Each episode usually lasts for two to three hours. The common hematologic conditions associated with priapism are sickle cell disease, leukemia, thalassemia, multiple myeloma, thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura. We report a case of a 17 year old male, who had recurrent episode of stuttering priapism over 3 to 4 years and finally presented to us with an episode of ischemic priapism lasting for more than 36 hours.
