title: [Saphenous vein grafting for Peyronie's disease: a case report].
abstract: We present a case of Peyronie's disease in a 50-year-old male with a progressive, painful induration (3 x 2 x 0.5 cm) in the dorsal region of the penis. In order to correct the high degree of penile curvature, we made a venous patch graft from the saphenous vein under general anesthesia and straightened the penis. Six months after the operation, a recurrent induration was observed in the proximal region of the penis, and the penis became slightly shortened.
