A multicenter evaluation of penile curvature correction in men with Peyronie's disease undergoing inflatable penile prosthesis placement.
J Sex Med
December 2024
Department of Urology, Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center, Lebanon, NH 03756, United States.
Background: Inflatable penile prosthesis (IPP) insertion is recommended for the treatment of patients with Peyronie's disease (PD) and significant erectile dysfunction (ED); adjunctive procedures can be used for residual curvature after IPP placement.
Aim: To assess the management of penile curvature correction in PD patients undergoing IPP procedures within a large multinational, multicenter cohort.
Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on PD patients treated with IPP by 11 experienced prosthetic surgeons.
Article Synopsis
- Intralesional collagenase (CCH) injections are effective for treating Peyronie's disease, but the efficacy in Black and Hispanic populations was previously unclear.
- The study analyzed CCH treatment outcomes over 15 years in a diverse patient group, finding no significant differences in treatment response between racial and ethnic groups, but noted that Hispanic men were less likely to complete all treatment cycles.
- Language barriers may have contributed to the lower completion rates among Hispanic patients, highlighting the need for improved communication in healthcare settings.

Article Synopsis
- Penile prosthesis implantation (PPI) is an effective treatment for severe erectile dysfunction when other therapies fail, but it's complicated for patients with corporal fibrosis (CF).
- Imaging techniques like ultrasound and MRI are essential in planning for PPI, helping to assess the severity of fibrosis before surgery.
- The review emphasizes that careful preoperative imaging can enhance surgical outcomes and minimize complications in patients with CF.
Response to comment on: penile prosthesis implantation is safe and effective in Peyronie's disease patients with and without erectile dysfunction.
