Abstract:
ObjectiveTo evaluate the effect of lengthening the short-side albuginea of the bending penis by the allogeneic acellular dermal matrix ( Allo-ADM ) for the treatment of penile curvature.MethodsFrom Jun 2007 to Jun 2010,18 patients with penile curvature due to malformation of the albuginea cavernous body were treated.The age of the patients ranged from 15 to 26 years (mean,20 years).Twelve patients were married.The curvature degree ranged from 30° to 80° (mean,55°).There were 17cases of single curvature and 1 case of complex curvature.The grafts ( Allo-ADM ) of different sizes were sutured to the albuginea at the curvatus side of the penis according to the extent of penile curvature through a circumcision incision.The extent of penile curvature and complications were evaluated postoperatively.ResultsPenile curvature was corrected in all 18 patients after the operation.No infection,hematoma and abnormal erection occurred postoperatively. No erectile dysfunction and penile re-curvature was observed during the follow-up period of 3 to 24 months.ConclusionLengthening the short-side albuginea of the bending penis by Allo-ADM could be a safe and effective way to correct penile curvature.
