Priapism in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) appears to be an infrequent manifestation as well as a crucial emergency. Here, we report an 18-year-old male presenting with a persistent erection of penis for 20 days. We evaluate and compare the reported cases during the past 20 years discussing the management of CML patients experiencing priapism. Cytoreductive therapy followed by leukapheresis, the administration of tyrosine kinase inhibitor, and intra-cavernosal blood aspiration may resolve the symptoms of priapism. Early intervention for cytoreduction and aspiration are the pivotal keys to successfully impeding the complications.

In this case report we describe the clinical case of an elderly patient with chronic myeloid leukemia and multiple comorbidities (heart disease, diabetes). Following the diagnosis of CML, in 2005 the patient had started treatment with imatinib 400 mg / day; therapy was well tolerated and never suspended until 2011, when he comes to the attention of our center. After re-evaluation of the disease, the patient is considered "failure" according to the recommendations ELN 2009. For this reason he switched to second generation tyrosine kinase inhibitor, nilotinib. After just 3 months of treatment with nilotinib the patient gets a complete cytogenetic response and a reduction of the transcript BCR/ABL %IS from 0,85 to 0,004. These results are still maintained, without any influence on pre-existing conditions.
