Ischaemic priapism is a urological emergency characterised by a prolonged, painful erection unrelated to sexual stimulation. While several aetiological factors contribute to this condition, the pharmacological causes have gained significant attention in recent years. This narrative review aims to comprehensively assess ischaemic priapism, specifically focusing on its pharmacological aetiology. We propose an approach and assessment strategy to the numerous factors associated with pharmacologically induced ischaemic priapism. By enhancing our understanding of the pharmacological causes of this condition, healthcare professionals can improve patient management and reduce the long-term complications associated with ischaemic priapism.
缺血性阴茎异常勃起是一种泌尿外科急症，其特征为长时间的、与性刺激无关的疼痛性勃起。虽然有多种病因导致这种情况，但近年来药物性病因受到了极大关注。本叙述性综述旨在全面评估缺血性阴茎异常勃起，特别关注其药物性病因。我们针对与药物诱导的缺血性阴茎异常勃起相关的众多因素提出了一种方法和评估策略。通过加深对这种情况的药物性病因的理解，医疗保健专业人员可以改善患者管理并减少与缺血性阴茎异常勃起相关的长期并发症。
