Curvature of the penis is an acquired or congenital change in the shape of the male penis.
Curvature of the penis is an acquired or congenital change in the shape of the male penis.

General information

There are the following causes of penile curvature:

  • shortened urethra (this is a congenital defect);
  • the presence of subcutaneous defects;
  • asymmetry of the cavernous bodies;
  • underdevelopment of the urethra;
  • hypoplasia of the urethra;
  • disproportion of the cavernous bodies;
  • the presence of scars around the urethra and keloid formations;
  • Peyronie's disease.
The most common curvature of the penis is the deviation of the penis from the axis to the side. The rarest curvature of the penis is the twisting of the penis around the axis.

As a rule, the curvature of the male penis intensifies in a state of erection. Sometimes the curvature of the penis to the left is noticeable only in a state of arousal.

In medicine, there are three types of penile deformation:

  • ventral deformation (curvature of the penis downwards);
  • lateral deformation;
  • dorsal deformation.

Lateral deformation is an acquired curvature of the penis to the left or right. Dorsal deformation involves curvature of the penis upwards. Curvature of the penis downwards is usually congenital.

Only an experienced andrologist can tell you how to correct a curvature of the penis.

The process of the procedure

Preparation

No special preparation is required before the treatment, unless the patient has acute inflammatory diseases in chronic form.

In preparation for the operation, the doctor prescribes the following studies:

  • cavernosography;
  • ultrasound of the penis;
  • MRI of the penis.

The process of treating curvature of the penis

The process of treating curvature of the penis is carried out by two methods: conservative and surgical.

The surgical method involves the creation of on the opposite side from the angle of curvature of the fold of the sheath of the penis. As a result of this procedure, the penis is straightened.

The duration of the operation is about 30 minutes and is always performed under general anesthesia. The conservative method involves the use of an extender.

Rehabilitation period

The first few days after the operation are characterized by the appearance of pain. In this case, the doctor prescribes painkillers. After the operation, physical activity should be limited. You will need to do the dressings yourself. Postoperative sutures are removed 2 weeks after the operation.

Indications

The main indication for the correction of penile curvature is a significantly pronounced curvature of the penis, as a result of which pain occurs during intercourse. As a rule, indications for penile curvature surgery can only be determined by an andrologist after consultation.

Contraindications

The main contraindication to penile curvature treatment is the presence of chronic diseases in the patient in acute and severe form.

Complications

The main complications after penile curvature treatment are:

  • infertility;
  • depression;
  • erectile dysfunction;
  • shortening of the male penis;
  • pain during erection.
