Abstract
A case of congenital non-spherocytic hemolytic anemia of unknown etiology is described. The patient had priapism and further hematologic evaluation revealed a glucose phosphate isomerase deficiency. This is the 1st report of priapism secondary to a defect of erythrocyte metabolism.This publication has 7 references indexed in Scilit:
