    Area of Science:

    • Vascular Surgery
    • Sexual Health
    • Urology

    Background:

    • Aorto-iliac operations are associated with significant postoperative physical and psychological issues.
    • Sexual dysfunction is a frequently reported and disabling complication following these procedures.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the incidence and characteristics of sexual dysfunction after aorto-iliac operations.
    • To identify potential relationships between surgical techniques and the development of sexual disability.

    Main Methods:

    • Prospective evaluation of 20 patients (average age 64) undergoing aorto-iliac procedures.
    • Detailed assessment of sexual function, including intercourse frequency, erectile function, and ejaculation, before and after surgery.
    • Categorization of patients by surgical procedure type and analysis of technical aspects.

    Main Results:

    • Significant sexual dysfunction, including retrograde ejaculation and impotence, occurred postoperatively.
    • Dysfunction was observed after abdominal aneurysmectomy, aorto-femoral bypass grafting, and aorto-iliac endarterectomy.
    • The type of operation and technical factors appear related to the incidence of sexual problems.

    Conclusions:

    • Aorto-iliac operations carry a significant risk of causing disabling sexual dysfunction.
    • Surgical approach and technical execution are critical factors influencing postoperative sexual health outcomes.
    • Further research is needed to mitigate these complications.
