[Cavernous vegetative innervation and hemodynamics in patients with fibroplastic induration of the penis and erectile dysfunction].

Different versions on pathogenesis of Peirony's disease (PD) and erectile dysfunction in this disease made us to investigate cavernous innervation and hemodynamics in patients with fibroplastic induration of the penis. We have detected characteristic changes of cavernous electric activity and histochemical picture in biopsies of all our patients with PD. Of them, 61% had cavernous hemodynamic disorders. Our findings suggest that early affection of cavernous innervation may trigger PD pathogenesis and erectile dysfunction in this disease.
