Priapism: Advances in Management
Date and time: Saturday, February 19, 2022, from 15.15hrs to 16.15hrs CEST.
Location: At this years ESSM virtual congress the ISSM will organize this 1 hour Ask The Expert session with Bud Burnett as the Expert. You will need to register for the full ESSM virtual congress to get access to this session (of course you also get access to all the other sessions of the ESSM congress).
Learning Objectives:
- To recognize the significance of priapism as a true erection disorder with adverse sexual, physical and psychosocial health effects.
- To review the current science, clinical practice and consensus guidelines for managing priapism.
Description of the session:
In this interactive session Dr. Arthur Burnett, Professor at John's Hopkins will serve as our virtual Visiting Professor. Via an electronic platform he will be available to answer general and specific questions related to Priapism, sexual function and dysfunction among a wide range of other topics. The strength of the session is it's interactive nature and the broad knowledge base that Dr Burnett has. Dr Brock will serve as moderator and the whole Executive Committee along with a select group of ISSM/ESSM members will be on hand to try and stump "Bud" with questions and challenging clinical cases.
The ability to have a one on one interactive session that is not scripted with a true thought leader is a unique experience that should not be missed.
We look forward to entertaining your questions during this Ask The Expert session at this years ESSM Meeting. https://www.essm-congress.org/
If you already have specific cases or questions you would like to be addressed on this topic, please let us know through
