Richards L - Ischemic priapism, caused by an inability to drain trapped blood from the corpora cavernosa, is managed by interventions such as aspiration of blood or intracavernosal injections of vasoconstrictive agents. If these conservative methods fail, surgical intervention is required to restore normal blood flow in the penis. A novel shunt technique has been shown to provide immediate resolution of penile pain and rigidity associated with prolonged ischemic priapism.
