Case report of sleep-related painful erections in a 34 year-old male with grade C3 HIV infection. Due to severe impairment of the patient's general condition, no proper diagnostic studies were performed to gain deeper knowledge of the symptom's pathological etiology. Empirical therapy was started based on evidence from the literature consulted, and the results seen were optimal. This paper contributes a brief review of a condition infrequently seen by the vast majority of urologists.
