Examples of neurologic etiologic factors include priapism in patients with degenerative stenosis of the lumbar canal, priapism secondary to cauda equine syndrome and herniated disk (Baba et al. 1995). 

The treatment of sickle cell priapism requires more disease-specific treatment, including oxygenation, hydration, alkalinization, exercise, analgesia and exchange transfusion. Anecdotal evidence supports the use of oral therapy with hydroxyurea and hydralazine (Al Jam a and Al Dabbous 1998). Etilefrine is an oral a-adrenoreceptor agonist that in the form of maintenance therapy may help prevent further attacks, with little effect on systemic blood pressure (Virag et al. 1996). Surgical spinal decompression has been recommended to alleviate priapism associated with lumbar spinal stenosis.
