%0 Journal Article %T Penile Gangrene: An Unusual Complication of Priapism in a Patient with Bladder Carcinoma %A AA Ajape %A A Bello %J Journal of Surgical Technique and Case Report %D 2011 %I %X A 40-year-old, apparently healthy farmer presented with a 4-day history of progressively painful penile erection with no known predisposing or precipitating factor. He had an emergency El-Ghorab shunt which resulted in almost complete detumescence. He was noticed to have developed ischemic changes of the distal part of the penile skin which progressed to gangrene of the distal part of the penis on the 4th day post intervention. Abdomino-pelvic ultrasound revealed an intravesical mass and urine and corpus cavernosa aspiration cytology were positive for malignant cell. The patient, however, declined further treatment and was discharged against medical advice. %U http://www.ajol.info/index.php/jstcr/article/view/67063
