Understanding Peyronie's Disease: A Treatment Guide for Curvature of the Penis - Paperback
by Laurence A. Levine (Author)
The psychological and physical pain of Peyronie's disease is addressed with quiet sympathy in this overview of the most-asked questions urologists hear from patients being treated for its symptoms. The role of the disease in erectile dysfunction is clearly outlined, and such treatments as injections, ionospheres (EDMA), shock waves, stretching therapy, and topical medications are explained. For more debilitating cases, surgical approaches such as grafting, plication, and prosthesis implantation are discussed, with advice about seeking good medical evaluations in order to assess the surgical options. Interesting case studies are presented in the final chapter, and a glossary and list of resources are also included.
