Our goal was to identify new Peyronie's disease (PD) subtypes, non-PD penile curvature classifications, and define active (acute) vs stable (chronic) phases of disease using evidence-based analyses. A retrospective review was performed of 1098 men who presented with penile deformity, including subjective standardized and nonstandardized questionnaires and objective measures. A second cohort of 719 men who were sent a mailed survey was also utilized for the relapsing/remitting subtype. Statistical analyses were performed to identify clusters of disease characteristics representative of distinct PD and non-PD categorizations, including sensitivity/specificity analyses and subtype comparisons. Comparative analyses identified 4 distinct subtypes of PD: (1) classical and nonclassical, (2) calcifying-moderate/severe calcification, (3) progressive-subjective worsening following disease onset, and (4) relapsing/remitting-reactivation following ≥ 6 months of stability. Additional, non-PD categorizations included congenital (lifelong), maturational (developed around puberty), and trauma induced. Statistical analyses demonstrated unique profiles among each category. Penile pain was not found to be a reliable predictor for disease progression or stability. Stable phase disease (historically "chronic") was variably defined by subtype: classical (≥3 months); progressive, calcifying, or trauma induced (≥12 months + ≥3 months stable OR ≥6 months stable). Similarly, PD subtypes may be assigned at ≥ 3 months following disease onset. A PTNM staging system is proposed to help communicate disease states, in which P = PD component (Ca-calcifying, Cl-classical, P-progressive, R-relapsing/remitting, U-undifferentiated), T = trauma component (0-absent, 1-present), N = non-PD component (C-congenital, M-maturational, U-undifferentiated), and M = mode (0-stable, 1-active); for example, PClT1N0M0 = stable classical PD with prior trauma. The current study provides an evidence-based proposal for the establishment of new PD subtypes and non-PD curvature categorizations as well as a standardized definition for active vs stable phases of disease.
