title: New sonographic aspects of peyronie disease.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of sonography in the identification of several types of lesions seen in patients with Peyronie disease (PD).
  
  
  METHODS
  A total of 78 patients were examined. Penile lesions were counted, classified, and categorized according to their anatomic location and sonographic presentation.
  
  
  RESULTS
  The classic sonographic presentation, as well as less common and novel findings, are described and correlated with clinically relevant data and physical examination findings.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Sonography can precisely assess the size and location of the plaques found in PD and can also aid in treatment.
