[Surgical treatment of priapism with open glans penis puncture-drainage in 26 black patients].
The surgical treatment of the priapism is complex and requires various techniques for diversion of the corpora cavernosa with significant morbidity. For the last 15 years, the author have been using a simple transglandular cavernosal spongiosum shunt technique, which satisfies the requirements of functional surgery: restoration of anatomy, reduced morbidity, facility to learn. This article is intended to precisely describe the surgical technique and to present the results based on a personal series of 26 cases of priapism operated with this technique in black patients (19 adults and seven children) in the context of sickle-cell anaemia.
