  • Title: [Intracavernous injection of etilefrine hydrochloride in iatrogenic priapism].
    Author: Uchida T, Omata T, Koshiba K.
    Journal: Hinyokika Kiyo; 1986 Dec; 32(12):1879-82. PubMed ID: 2881462.
    Abstract:
    Intracavernous injection of etilefrine hydrochloride (1 or 2 mg) was performed on four patients with fully erected penis after intracavernous injection of 40 mg of papaverine hydrochloride. One case needed three injections of etilefrine hydrochloride (1 mg), but the erection disappeared in the other three cases within 10 minutes after a single injection of 2 mg of etilefrine hydrochloride. The injection resulted in complete detumescence and relief of the erection in all cases. These observations strongly suggest that the intracavernous injection of etilefrine hydrochloride is effective in treating not only iatrogenic priapism but also priapism due to other etiologies. Also, it might be useful to control erection time after intracavernous injection therapy for impotence.
