[Prosthetic implants for penile induration].

From 1982 to 1988 we have evaluated 283 patients affected by Peyronie's disease. 81 of these complained erectile disfunction. Semirigid penile prosthesis were inserted in 38 patients with severe induratio penis plastica. Following surgery the patients were given a sexual questionnaire in order to determine whether they had realised their expectations as well as partner acceptance. Our results appear to be favourable and prosthesis insertion in selected patients with Peronie's disease seems to be the safest, most economical and best accepted choice.
