title: [Surgical treatment of venous-induced erectile impotence in the male].
abstract: In 14 out of 94 patients with erectile dysfunction a venous insufficiency was suspected. Localization and securing of the venous leak were done by dynamic cavernosography. An insufficient penile blood supply could excluded by Doppler ultrasonography and measurement of the penile-brachial artery-pressure index. In 7 out of 13 patients treated by ligation of penile veins the erectile function was normalized after operation, in 4 cases an additional intracavernous injection therapy was necessary and in 2 patients the operation was unsuccessful. If impotence occurs once more due to venous collaterals the implantation of a penile prosthesis should considered.
