Abstract:
A total of 29 patients underwent 32 operations for correction of penile curvature. Of these patients 22 underwent placement of a semirigid prosthesis and 94 per cent of those available for followup were able to resume coitus. Of the 8 patients who underwent operative correction of penile curvature and who maintained potency only 3 (38 per cent) were able to resume intercourse. Vascular compromise and/or skin slough after degloving of the penile skin was noted in 3 patients. A proximal approach to penile reconstruction is presented.
