A new approach to the correction of the penile deformity in Peyronie's disease

Nesbit's operation was performed on 23 of 160 patients with Peyronie's disease seen between January 1975 and July 1978. Details of the preoperative treatment and operative technique are provided. Normal sexual intercourse was resumed by 20 of the 23 patients and none had a significant residual deformity. It is suggested that Nesbit's operation is the procedure of choice in patients who do not respond to conservative treatment.
