Background And Objective: We evaluated the effectiveness of injecting autologous adipose-derived regenerative cells (ADRCs) into plaque in men with chronic Peyronie's disease (PD).
Methods: This pilot safety study recruited 22 Danish men with chronic PD from an outpatient clinic. Patients received one bolus of ADRCs injected into plaque, with follow-ups at 1, 3, 6, and 12 mo.

Peyronie's disease (PD) is characterized by the formation of fibrotic plaques within the penile connective tissue, leading to abnormal curvature, pain, and erectile dysfunction, profoundly affecting patients' physical and psychological well-being. The Peyronie's Disease Questionnaire (PDQ) is a validated instrument designed to assess key aspects of the disease, including pain, sexual function, and psychosocial impact. This narrative review underscores the importance of translating and culturally adapting the PDQ into Portuguese to enhance its applicability for Portuguese-speaking populations.

Background: The penile suspensory ligament (PSL) plays a significant role in penile support and erection and its injury or congenital absence may result in functional impairment of erectile function.
Aim: To describe the diagnosis and surgical repair technique for PSL abnormalities and overall outcomes.
Methods: A comprehensive review of the literature was performed to understand the anatomic relevance of the PSL and historical management of PSL defects.
Purpose Of Review: Peyronie's disease characterizes a condition in which there is angular curvature of the penis. We know that the most patients with Peyronie's disease will not have spontaneous resolution of their penile curvature. As such, patients who desire treatment can elect for either surgical or nonsurgical therapy.

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.
