ABSTRACT
Sickle cell anaemia (SCD) is a disorder with a high index of morbidity, affecting the
quality of life of these patients. Priapism is a common complication of SCD and it is
characterized by a prolonged and persistent erection of the penis lasting more than 4
hours without associated sexual stimulation. The 95 % of priapism crisis in SCD
patients are ischemic type. In this paper we review the new molecular mechanisms
implicated in the pathogenesis of ischemic priapism and provide the basis for potential
future therapies.
