Surgeries for Penile Curvature

Discover the 16 most used correction techniques. See details to make the right choice with your urologist.

Penile curvature surgery is the most recommended method to treat severe cases of Peyronie’s Disease and congenital penile curvature.

Originating from a difference in elasticity in the penile tissues or the formation of fibrosis (which can also lead to size reduction and narrowing), penile curvature can be noticed when the penis is erect.

This condition often hampers sexual relations, as the penis tends to bend and/or slip during penetration.

Diagnosis of Penile Curvature

In most cases, it is possible to align the penis with penile curvature surgery. For this, it is necessary to undergo an evaluation with a urologist, who will:

Perform an erection test;
Check the penis rigidity;
Perform an ultrasound with Doppler;
Palpate the penis in search of fibrosis;
Assess the blood flow inside the penis;
Analyze the degree of curvature;
Study possible pre-existing chronic diseases.

After a thorough evaluation, Dr. Paulo Egydio will select the most appropriate technique for your case, based on 25 years dedicated to the care of men with penile curvature.

Surgical Techniques for Penile Curvature

The surgical techniques used to correct penile curvature can be categorized into two main types:

Shortening the Long Side of the Penis;
Lengthening the Short Side of the Penis.

Techniques that Shorten the Long Side of the Penis:

Nesbit Technique: removal of one or more ellipses and closing the edges, shortening the long side to match the short one.
Modified Kelami-Nesbit Technique: a modification of the Nesbit technique, which uses an instrument to define the location and size of the ellipse to be removed.
Yachia's Modified Corporoplasty: a single vertical incision with horizontal closure, which shortens the long side to match the short one.
Lue "16 Points" Technique: performing multiple parallel plications.
Essed-Schroeder Plication Technique: application of four plications opposite the point of maximum curvature, with symmetry in dorsal curvatures and asymmetry in additional lateral curvatures.
Egydio STAGE Technique: Use of geometric principles to precisely determine the location of superficial ellipses. Added precision to everything that has been done since 1965 with Nesbit.

Techniques that Lengthen the Short Side of the Penis:

Devine-Horton Dermal Graft Procedure: excision of fibrosis and replacement of tissue with a graft to cover the defect.
Sampaio's Parallel I-shaped Incision: tissue expansion from a sliding incision (instead of tissue replacement), producing a defect.
Single I-shaped Incision by Sampaio: single incision to produce tissue expansion by sliding, instead of multiple.
Gelbard's Relaxation Incisions: multiple incisions aimed at expanding tissue to implant a larger penile prosthesis without grafts and incision models treat narrowing and curvatures with tissue expansion.
Lue's H-shaped Technique: an H-shaped incision model that expands the tissue.
Egydio's Geometric Principles: relaxation incision to expand the tissues, based on geometric principles for greater precision.métricos de Egydio: incisão de relaxamento para expandir os tecidos, com base em princípios geométricos para maior precisão.
Egydio Sansalone Technique: application of geometric principles in multicentric studies.
Miranda Geometric Model: application of Egydio's geometric principles with the help of a computerized method to increase precision.
Gaffney's Stretching Strategy: different models of relaxation incisions (adjuvant maneuvers) to produce slippages and lengthen the penile shaft up to the limit of nerves and urethra.
Egydio's Graft-Free Geometric Method: tissue expansion to produce slippages and rebuild the loss of elasticity of fibrosed areas. It is an adjuvant maneuver for the placement of the penile prosthesis.

Objetivos da Cirurgia de Pênis Torto

Uma das principais funções do implante é o tratamento para doença de Peyronie, além disso tem outros benefícios como:

Análise da curvatura peniana baseada em princípios geométricos;
Alongar o lado curto do Pênis visando iguala-lo ao lado longo;
Utilizar protocolos e manobras adjuvantes para minimizar complicações como hematomas, redução na sensibilidade, etc;
Resgatar uma vida sexual saudável, com boa funcionalidade peniana.

A técnica utilizada pelo Dr. Paulo Egydio é uma possibilidade de tratamento para o pênis curvo congênito.

A curvatura pode ser para o lado, para cima ou para baixo ou em alguns casos uma combinação desses dois tipos

What is the best surgical technique for penile curvature?

The best technique to correct your curvature will depend on the experience, the application of different approaches, and the learning of the surgeon. Moreover, each patient’s case requires an individualized look.

For Dr. Paulo Egydio, it is crucial to conduct a detailed evaluation with a specialist to determine the most suitable surgical strategy. It is essential that the surgeon has a deep knowledge of all available techniques, allowing him to adapt the surgical approach as necessary.

Thanks to the precision that the Egydio technique introduced in reconstructive urology, it is possible to achieve excellent results in terms of penetrative capability and patient satisfaction.
