Operating modes
The surgical technique is adapted to each patient according to the severity of the curvature, the presence or absence of significant fibrosis and functional expectations.
Plication surgery (Nesbit, Yachia, modified techniques)
- Suitable for bends of less than 60°.
- Plicature of the corpora cavernosa on the side opposite the plate
- Fast response with reliable results
📌 Risk: slight shortening of the penis
Surgery with grafting (excision/incision of plaque + grafting)
- Indicated for severe (> 60°) or complex bends (hourglass deformations, twists)
- Incision or partial removal of fibrous plaque
- Placement of a graft (biological or synthetic material) to restore symmetry
📌 Objective: correct without shortening, but with greater risk of erectile dysfunction
Penile implant (severe cases with associated erectile dysfunction)
- Definitive solution to treat both curvature and erectile dysfunction
- Prosthetic cylinders mechanically correct deformation
📌 Indicated when Lapeyronie's disease is associated with irreversible impotence
Why resort to surgery?
Surgery is particularly indicated when :
- Curvature makes intercourse difficult or impossible
- Pain persists despite time or medical treatment
