title: Surgical treatment of Peyronie's disease.
abstract: Peyronie's Disease (PD) is a sexually debilitating disease resulting in significant psycho-logic stress for many men. Urologists have an opportunity to help men suffering from PD to improve their lives. Appropriate treatment should be individualized and tailored to the patient's expectations, disease history, physical examination findings, and erectile function. This review is intended to share the experiences of other urologists in the surgical approach to PD.
