Abstract
This study has shown that patients with ischaemic priapism that fails to respond to conventional doses of an α-agonist are unlikely to benefit from continual or high-dose phenylephrine administration, as there is usually widespread apoptosis of the cavernosal smooth muscle preventing further contraction. Muneer A, Minhas S, Freeman A, Kumar P, and Ralph DJ. Investigating the effects of high-dose phenylephrine in the management of prolonged ischaemic priapism. J Sex Med 2008;5:2152-2159.
