    Atherosclerosis in the aorta and iliac arteries can cause erectile dysfunction. Preserving the presacral nerve during aortoiliac surgery maintains sexual function in 90% of patients, preventing ejaculatory issues.

    Area of Science:

    • Vascular Surgery
    • Sexual Medicine
    • Urology

    Background:

    • Atherosclerotic disease of the aorta and iliac arteries commonly leads to impotence, characterized by erectile dysfunction.
    • Aortoiliac reconstructive surgery can result in sterility, specifically the inability to ejaculate.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the impact of aortoiliac reconstructive surgery on sexual function.
    • To determine methods for preserving sexual function following this type of surgery.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of cases involving atherosclerotic disease of the aorta and iliac arteries.
    • Analysis of outcomes following aortoiliac reconstructive surgery.
    • Evaluation of the role of preserving the superior hypogastric sympathetic plexus (presacral nerve).

    Main Results:

    • Impotence presents as erectile failure in patients with aortoiliac atherosclerosis.
    • Sterility, defined as inability to ejaculate, is a common complication post-aortoiliac surgery.
    • Preservation of the superior hypogastric sympathetic plexus maintained sexual function in 90% of cases.

    Conclusions:

    • Surgical intervention for aortoiliac atherosclerosis can compromise sexual function.
    • Preserving the presacral nerve during aortoiliac reconstructive surgery is crucial for maintaining ejaculatory function and overall sexual health.
