Forty-two out of a total of 45 children who presented with priapism in the University College Hospital Ibadan during an eight-year period had associated sickle cell disease (SCD). Conservative management was satisfactory in 35 out of 40 patients, but the outcome in all the five cases subjected to surgery was poor. Our findings suggest that associated SCD should be suspected in children presenting with priapism in areas of the world where SCD is endemic, and that conservative management is preferable to surgery.
在伊巴丹大学学院医院八年期间出现阴茎异常勃起的45名儿童中，有42名患有镰状细胞病（SCD）。40名患者中35名采用保守治疗效果良好，但接受手术的5例患者预后均较差。我们的研究结果表明，在镰状细胞病流行地区，出现阴茎异常勃起的儿童应怀疑患有相关的镰状细胞病，并且保守治疗优于手术治疗。
