Initial management can include sys-temic treatment of the underlying disorder (fluid and oxygen for sickle cell patients) but this should be done concurrently with an active treatment to reduce the priapism.82 The initial intervention may be therapeutic aspiration or injection of sym-pathomimetics (phenylephrine). Insertion of a large-gauge needle (16–21 gauge) into the lateral aspect of one corporal body allows thorough aspiration and irrigation of both corporal bod-ies because of widely communicating intercavernosal channels.

Currently 99% of newly diagnosed patients will survive more than 10 years.91While early screening for African American patients or patients with a family history of prostate cancer is widely accepted, screening for all men is more controversial. Despite data from large randomized clinical trials showing a decrease in mortality after prostate cancer screening, the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force recommended against the routine use of prostate cancer screening.129 Its recommendation was based on the harm and toxicity of overtreatment of nonlethal disease.130 The American Urologic Association subsequently recom-mended informed and shared decision-making and screening for high-risk disease for men between the ages of 55 and 69 with a life expectancy more than 10 years.131If the digital rectal examination is abnormal or if the PSA level is above expected

Vasculogenic ED can be a result of cardiovascular disease and endothelial dysfunction leading to cavernosal artery insufficiency. Diseases such as hypertension (odds ratio [OR] 1.35–3.04), diabetes (OR 2.57), dyslipidemia (OR 1.83), and tobacco abuse (OR 1.4) all may increase the risk for ED.167 Nerve injuries due to diseases (diabetes, Parkin-son’s, multiple sclerosis, spinal cord injury) or surgery (radical prostatectomy, abdominoperineal resection, and other radical pelvic procedures) can lead to interruptions in the nerve signal-ing that causes nitric oxide release and therefore lead to ED. Iatrogenic causes may be a result of surgery (described earlier) or medication use, as in some antihypertensives, opiates, anti-androgens, and psychotherapeutics.168 Psychogenic ED, a com-mon reaction to stress and anxiety, is a result of noradrenaline release

or medication use, as in some antihypertensives, opiates, anti-androgens, and psychotherapeutics.168 Psychogenic ED, a com-mon reaction to stress and anxiety, is a result of noradrenaline release causing smooth muscle contraction and thereby inhibit-ing erections.169Treatment for ED begins with lifestyle modification by identifying any reversible risk factors such as stress/anxiety, medications, unhealthy diets, lack of exercise, and tobacco abuse.170 Medical therapy then begins with the use of phospho-diesterase type-5 inhibitors (PDE5i). These work by prolonging the activity of cGMP, leading to continued smooth muscle relax-ation allowing more blood inflow into the penis. Common drugs include sildenafil, tadalafil, vardenafil, and avanafil. They differ in time to peak concentration (lowest in avanafil, sildenafil, and vardenafil), half-life (highest in tadalafil), and the impact of lip-ids in foods (sildenafil and vardenafil must be taken on an empty stomach).

Vision related conditions like macular degeneration, retinitis pigmentosa, and nonarter-itic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy are cause for increased awareness and possible ophthalmologic consult.172Second-line options for ED include vacuum erection devices (VED), intracavernosal injections (ICI), and intraure-thral suppositories.

Since fetal urine production accounts for much of the amniotic fluid, low levels can be a sign of a severe abnormality of the urinary tract. Reduced amniotic fluid is of great consequence since nor-mal lung development is dependent on normal amniotic fluid volumes and children with oligohydramnios can be born with significant pulmonary insufficiency.
