A 19-day-old baby was referred on October 30, 2018 with suspected
penile chordee. Parents, however, expressed concerns of baby having
prolonged intermittent penile erections since birth. The mother’s smart
phone images of prolonged penile erections were similar in appearance as
during the office visit. Watchful waiting with periodic assessment through
telemedicine was done. Priapism resolved before age 28 days, with no
recurrence in 12 months.
Results: Parents were concerned about the prolonged penile erections
and documented these episodes with their smart phone cameras. The
digital photos were helpful in assessment and treatment. The outcome of
watchful waiting management was satisfactory. This is in keeping with the
reported cases in the literature. Telemedicine as a platform for followup

UP-3.18. Fig. 1. Study flowchart. Conclusions: Neonatal priapism causes anxiety for the parents. The use
of smart phone cameras by mothers to document neonatal priapism can
be useful in the watchful waiting management strategy. Telemedicine was
attractive, time saving and convenient.
