Abstract

Surgery is the mainstay of treatment for Peyronie’s disease (PD), but multiple surgical approaches may be considered. We present specific surgical techniques for each individual case. We aim to demonstrate its safety and effectivity for penile curvature correction and restoring erectile dysfunction with limited complications. Data were collected from a prospective cohort of 23 consecutive patients treated in our institution with complex PD and ED, between February 2015 and May 2017. The surgical procedure consists of an implantation of penile prosthesis (malleable or inflatable) associated with single or multiple incisions of the plaque/tunica albuginea and grafting with a self-adhesive collagen fleece, and previously modified neurovascular bundle release. All patients provided informed consent and the protocol was approved by Institution Review Board (IRB). In the video attached, we described each technique, step by step. With a median follow-up of 15.3 months, the mean postsurgical penile lengthening was 2.7(1-5) cm, with an improvement of PDQ PD bother score of 4.3(2-5) points. No glans ischemia or infectious complications were recorded, but hematoma was observed in 26% patients, and the overall satisfaction was 92%.
