[New progress in etiological factor study and treatment of erectile dysfunction in chronic renal failure patients].

Some side effects contribute to the morbidity of these patients. Among them, erectile dysfunction (ED) is notable. This article reviews recent advances in etiological factor study and treatment of ED in CRF patients, which may guide the clinic practices in a considerable scale.
