Office treatment: intracavernous injections of prostaglandin E1 (PG E1) and improvement of spontaneous erections.
The Authors evaluated 48 patients with erectile dysfunctions, either psychogenic or neurologic or with vascular etiology. The experience confirms that PG E1 is able ti improve erection, mainly in case of psychological and vascular problems. The drug used is useful for the office treatment, since it has such a low incidence of side effects.
