Priapism is a rare condition in paediatrics. Although its association with scorpion envenomation has been documented, cases involving an associated penile haematoma are extremely rare. To the best of our knowledge, we hereby present the first documented case of this unique association in a nine-year-old boy following a scorpion sting. The purpose of this observation is to discuss the diagnostic difficulties, management strategies, and possible mechanisms associated with this unusual manifestation, and to highlight the importance of prompt recognition and appropriate management of priapism and penile haematoma in children, particularly those living in areas where scorpion stings are endemic.
阴茎异常勃起在儿科中是一种罕见病症。尽管其与蝎子蜇伤的关联已有文献记载，但涉及相关阴茎血肿的病例极为罕见。据我们所知，在此我们呈现首例有记录的9岁男孩蝎子蜇伤后出现这种独特关联的病例。本观察的目的是讨论与此异常表现相关的诊断难点、管理策略及可能机制，并强调及时识别和妥善处理儿童阴茎异常勃起及阴茎血肿的重要性，尤其是那些生活在蝎子蜇伤流行地区的儿童。
