The first treatment for ischemic priapism is "therapeutic aspiration." The urologist sticks a needle into the side of the penis and draws blood directly from the cavernosa. The same needle is sometimes used to inject saline solution into the penis, which can help flush out the remaining blood. Aspiration and irrigation work around 25 percent to 30 percent of the time. Doctors can also inject drugs that constrict the arteries and cut off penile blood flow. Injections are given every few minutes for about an hour.
In rare cases, an intractable erection will resist both aspiration and drug injections. In this case, the urologist performs a surgical shunt. The simplest type of shunt involves cutting a small hole in the head of the penis, then opening oval windows in the tips of the cavernosa. When the surface incision is closed, the blood trapped in the erectile tissue drains out through the unaffected penile veins. A more involved shunt procedure involves cutting a nearby but unrelated vein and attaching one end of it to the base of the penis.

I heard that commercial. I wouldn't call the doctor, I'd call my wife, my girl friend, her girl friends, and keep going until I die with a smile on my face.

If I sought medical help for an erection that lasted more than 4 seconds let alone 4 hours, they would call the newspapers, t.v. and photographers to record the event.

I was curious when I read Jim's question and I thought the procedure involved draining blood. This is another reason I wouldn't use Viagra.
