To assess the incidence of priapism in the general population. We conducted a population-based retrospective cohort study within a general practitioners research database. Our study population comprised all male patients with permanent registration status with a general practitioner. All patients with an International Classification for Primary Care code for penile problems (Y01, Y04, Y08) were identified.

The total study cohort comprised 145,071 men, with a total follow-up of 341,133 person-years. Five patients developed a first occurrence of priapism during the follow-up period, corresponding to an overall incidence rate of 1.5 per 100,000 person-years (95% confidence interval 0.2 to 2.8). The incidence rate in men 40 years old and older was 2.9 per 100,000 person-years (95% confidence interval 0.1 to 5.7). No cause of priapism was apparent in 2 patients, 2 cases occurred after intracavernous injection of vasodilators, and 1 patient experienced priapism because of sickle cell d...Continue Reading
