Albuginea plication in the treatment of penile curvature

: Presentation of the results obtained by our team in the treatment of 22 cases of penial incurvation (11 congenital and 11 secondary to Peyronie's Disease) using the albuginea plication technique. Evaluation of post-operative results taking into account both subjective (extent of satisfaction, comfort during the post-operative etc.) and objective (post-operative complications, degree of correction, reincurvation or failure etc.) factors was done by a follow-up programme through the out-patients practices using a Questionnaire-Survey system. Presentation of results obtained and detailed discussion of each case. The conclusions were as follows: Albuginea plication is a safe technique that achieves total penis redressment, with no post-operative complications. The extent of satisfaction and success obtained exceed 85%, and can be increased by improving the pre-operative selection and providing correct and precise information on what can be resolved with this technique.
