Successful treatment of stutter priapism with an antiandrogen.
    Techniques in urology, 1998, Volume: 4, Issue:3

    Recurring periods of prolonged erections in patients with sickle cell disease (stutter priapism) are uncommon, yet troubling sequelae of hemoglobinopathies. Medical or surgical therapy is variably successful in these men. We report a case of stutter priapism successfully treated with an oral antiandrogen.

Gonadotropin-releasing hormone analogues in the treatment of sickle cell anemia-associated priapism.
    The Journal of urology, 1993, Volume: 150, Issue:2 Pt 1

    Priapism secondary to sickle cell anemia has been treated with a variety of therapeutic regimens. Recurrent sickle cell priapism is common and in many cases results when detumescence has not been achieved reliably. We report on a patient with sickle cell disease and recurrent priapism who was treated successfully for more than a year with monthly gonadotropin-releasing hormone analogue therapy after failure of standard medical management.
