Abstract

Perineal venous leakage is a cause of impotence that is demonstrated easily by dynamic caver-nosography. Perineal ligation of the crura penis was done in 13 patients with this type of impotence. Nine patients achieved satisfactory intercourse and 3 had sufficient erection after intracavernous self-injections of papaverine. Implantation of a penile prosthesis was required in only 1 patient. Ligation of the crura penis is a simple operation that seems to be efficient in the treatment of impotence owing to perineal venous leakage.
