Egydio Technique after Penile Surgery: when should it be considered in re-operations? Learn more! 🧐
The Egydio Technique is an advanced penile-reconstruction method that straightens the shorter side of the shaft and may be used after an unsatisfactory procedure. Discover when the Egydio Technique after penile surgery can be recommended.
When to consider the Egydio Technique after another penile surgery?
The Egydio Technique may be indicated for men who underwent previous surgery or other therapies that left changes such as shortening, curvature or fibrotic plaques.
Unlike graft-based methods that shorten the longer side, the Egydio Technique lengthens the shorter side and avoids grafts. This approach often improves body perception and sexual well-being.
Which alterations can the Egydio Technique correct?
Developed during Dr Paulo Egydio’s doctoral research, this protocol can be a primary or revision procedure. Conditions where it can help include:
- Peyronie’s disease: fibrotic scars after intercourse, sports or accidents;
- Congenital curvature: affects 4 – 10 % of males and often shows up in adolescence (“young man’s curvature”);
- Penile trauma: severe damage to the cavernosa, urethra or tunica albuginea that may cause deformity or permanent ED;
- Severe erectile dysfunction: considered when oral medications fail;
- Unsuccessful surgeries: deformity or loss of function after prostate removal (prostate surgery) or cancer operations.
Can the Egydio Technique be done after a penile prosthesis?
A penile prosthesis treats severe ED and curvature in Peyronie’s or congenital cases.
For pronounced deformities, performing the Egydio Technique first restores penile dimensions, then prosthesis sizing becomes more accurate.
If a man already has a prosthesis but still experiences weak erections or postoperative curvature, the Egydio Technique may correct dimensions and allow prosthesis replacement.
How does personalised evaluation with Dr Paulo Egydio work?
Dr Paulo performs:
- Erection test;
- Rigidity assessment;
- Palpation for fibrosis;
- Curvature measurement.
He also orders Doppler ultrasound, checks penile blood flow and reviews comorbidities.
Expected outcomes of the Egydio Technique in revision surgery
Results are encouraging when a detailed plan is drawn up and follow-up maintained throughout treatment. Many patients report improved self-confidence after addressing intimate concerns.
Common questions about previous surgeries
- Is it possible after other penile operations? Yes, once fibrosis, tunica status and any prosthesis are assessed;
- Is it riskier? Every surgery has risks; revision cases require stricter evaluation;
- Recovery time? Stay 1 – 2 days; light activities after ~15 days; sexual activity usually after ~60 days.
