ABSTRACT:

Objective: To observe that the priapism following spinal anaesthesia in urological procedures. Place and Time of study: Sir Ganga Ram Hospital, Lahore in 2018. Methodology: Priapism following spinal anaesthesia for urological methods is an uncommon event. It is an irksome entanglement which may represent a test to the urologist in continuing with the medical procedure or even may result in the undoing of the elective strategy. We present an instance of the event of priapism in a hypertensive patient posted for transurethral resection of prostate after a subarachnoid square and the manner in which we oversaw it. Concentrates in the previous two decades have referenced different strategies of treating this intraoperative inconvenience, for example, the intracorporeal infusion of vasopressors, subcutaneous or intravenous terbutaline and intravenous glycopyrrolate. For our situation, we effectively managed this intricacy with intravenous glycopyrrolate. Keywords: Priapism; Spinal Anesthesia; Phenylephrine; Glycopyrrolate.
