Aim: Erectile dysfunction may be observed in up to 80% of patients with Peyronie’s disease. An objective evaluation of the erectile function is attempted to work out in patients with Peyronie’s disease. Methods: Penile deformity, sexual function and penile vascular status were analyzed in 123 patients with Peyronie’s disease, who had not received any pertinent treatment. Results: Penile deformity, palpable plaque and pain on erection were seen in 112 (91%), 97(78.8%) and 27 (21.9%) of the 123 patients, respectively. Of the 76 patients evaluated by color Doppler ultrasounography, veno-occlusive dysfunction as the vascular component for erectile dysfunction was found in 17 (22.3%), arterial insufficiency in 10(13.1%) and a mixed picture in 23 (30.2%). Conclusion: The documentation of penile erectile function and the determination of the vascular status using color Doppler ultrasonography can guide the appropriate therapeutic choice.
