Patients who underwent surgery for a penile deviation in Peyronie＇s disease between 1997 and 2007 were included into this study. Cases were retrospectively analysed by chart review. The current situation was evaluated by a 16-item standardized questionnaire addressing penile straightness, sensation, length, sexual function and satisfaction. Ninety patients were contacted with a return rate of 75 （83%） evaluabie questionnaires. Thirty-two patients were operated by shortening techniques （STs） with either Schroeder-Essed （n= 16） or Nesbit （n= 16）. Forty-three were operated by a plaque in-lexcision and defect covering by TachoSil method （TM）. Both groups were similar regarding age （ST 56 years, TM 57 years）, comorbidities, mean preoperative erection hardness score （EHS; 3.1 ST, 3.4 TM） and time of follow-up （total mean, 63 months）. Preoperatively ST patients had significantly less plaques （P〈0.05） and a lower deviation angle in comparison to TM patients （ST 56° versus TM 74°; P〈 0.001）. Still TM patients reported slightly better straightening results, but a significantly lower mean EHS （ST 3.3 versus TM 2.6; P〈0.001） during the follow-up. Satisfaction rates were similar in both groups. In conclusion, both techniques revealed to be safe and sustainable successful in penile straightening with better functional outcome of patients operated by STs.展开更多
