[Ultrasonic examination of the penis]

Authors describe their experiences with penile ultrasonography. US was very useful in diagnostics of urethral strictures, urethral stones, Peyronie's plaques and for control of corpora cavernosa during papaverine induced erection. Application of ultrasonography for such purposes is very rare as yet, and the international literature referring to this is not very numerous either. According to authors' knowledge, this is the first paper in Hungarian dealing with this topic.
