[Priapism treated by caverno-glandular shunt, caverno-saphenous shunt and caverno-spongiosum shunt: report of a case].

A 44-year-old man visited a local urologist complaining of continuous pain and tumescence at penis persisting for 3 days. He was diagnosed with priapism. A caverno-glandular and caverno-saphenous shunt was performed. He presented to our hospital 3 days later, because the symptoms especially tumescence continued. We confirmed the diagnosis of low-flow priapism from cavernosography and intracavenal blood-gasometry and performed caverno-spongiosum shunt. Detumescence was finally achieved after the operation.
