title: Outcomes of Surgical Management of Men With Peyronie's Disease With Hourglass Deformity.
abstract: To investigate the outcomes of two surgical interventions for Peyronie's disease (PD) with hourglass deformity: partial excision and grafting (PEG) or inflatable penile prosthesis (IPP) implantation.
  
  
  
  Retrospective data were collected from two centers: Technical University of Munich (PEG) and Tulane University Medical Center (IPP). Collected variables included patient demographics, sexual function, penile vascular measurements, and treatment outcomes.
  
  
  
  A total of 50 PD patients with hourglass deformity (26 PEG [group 1] and 24 IPP [group 2]) were included in this study. Patients in group 1 had higher mean preoperative Sexual Health Inventory for Men scores (22.2 vs 10.3, P < 0001), required less erectile dysfunction treatment (35% vs 79%, P = .005), and had more nonvascular etiology (77% vs 21%, P < .0001). There were no intraoperative complications, 2 patients in group 1 had postoperative glans hypoesthesia, and 1 patient in group 2 required surgical revision. All patients in both groups had significant ≥20% improvements in penile curvature with mean changes of 68.1 degrees (12.7) in group 1 and 49.6 degrees (13.5) in group 2, P < .0001. Resolution of hourglass deformity was achieved in 85% of patients in group 1 and 100% of patients in group 2, P = .045. The mean postoperative change in Sexual Health Inventory for Men score was -0.3 (1.3) in group 1 and 16.7 (4.7) in group 2, P < .0001.
  
  
  
  Both options provide excellent outcomes for well-selected patients with PD and an hourglass deformity. PEG can be offered to patients with good erectile function, whereas the IPP remains the preferred option for patients with poor erections.
