  • Title: Priapism in a patient with unstable hemoglobin: hemoglobin Köln.
    Author: Andrieu V, Dumonceau O, Grange MJ.
    Journal: Am J Hematol; 2003 Sep; 74(1):73-4. PubMed ID: 12949895.
    Abstract:
    We report a case of severe priapism occurring in a patient with unstable hemoglobin, hemoglobin Köln, and underline several factors that may have contributed to this complication: abnormal plasticity of red cells, splenectomy, and cytomegalovirus infection. Since emergency treatment may prevent impotence, patients and parents should be educated about this complication.
