Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Hematology

Background:

  • Partial priapism, or partial segmental thrombosis of the corpus cavernosum, is a rare urological condition.
  • Associated factors include bicycle riding, drug use, penile trauma, and hematological diseases.

Observation:

  • This report details a case of a 70-year-old man experiencing partial priapism following blood transfusions.

Findings:

  • The patient was successfully treated with low molecular weight heparin (LMWH).
  • LMWH is a first-choice medical treatment for partial priapism, alongside acetylsalicylic acid.

Implications:

  • This case highlights LMWH as an effective treatment for transfusion-associated partial priapism.
  • It underscores the importance of considering anticoagulation therapy in managing this rare condition.
