Ischemic or low flow priapism is a medical-surgical emergency, so early diagnosis is essential to avoid delaying treatment. Point-of-care laboratory tests (POCT) help quickly identify whether or not we are dealing with ischemic priapism. We present the case of a 40-year-old man who came to the emergency room and was diagnosed with ischemic priapism early by POCT and he was given immediate treatment.
