  • Title: An unusual presentation of achondroplasia. Case report.
    Author: Tubbs RS, Oakes WJ.
    Journal: J Neurosurg; 2005 Aug; 103(2 Suppl):170-1. PubMed ID: 16370285.
    Abstract:
    The authors present a case of an adolescent with achondroplasia and symptoms of neurogenic claudication who, interestingly, also presented with intermittent priapism. Both the neurogenic claudication and priapism were relieved following a thoracolumbar laminectomy. To our knowledge, this is the first report of a dwarf with thoracolumbar spinal canal stenosis presenting with priapism.
