Zusammenfassung

Die Induratio penis plastica ist eine gutartige Erkrankung der Corpora cavernosa. Mikrotraumen mit nachfolgender Wundheilungsstörung unklarer Ätiologie führen durch Bildung eines unelastischen Narbengewebes im Bereich der Tunica albuginea zu den typischen Symptomen Plaquebildung, Penisschmerz, Deviation und erektile Dysfunktion. Eine kausale medikamentöse Therapie existiert nicht, obwohl vielfältige konservative Therapieoptionen einschließlich intraläsionaler Therapie diskutiert werden. Die chirurgische Korrektur der Penisverkrümmung steht häufig am Ende des Krankheitsverlaufs. Unterschiedliche Operationsverfahren werden abhängig von Deviationsgrad, Penislänge und erektiler Funktion angeboten. Diese Arbeit gibt eine Übersicht über den Krankheitsverlauf und beschreibt sowohl aktuelle konservative Therapieoptionen als auch die gängigen chirurgischen Techniken zur Deviationskorrektur.

Abstract

Peyronie’s disease is a benign disorder of the penis but the etiology is still unknown. A wound healing disorder after repetitive microtraumatic lesions with inelastic scar formation of the tunica albuginea potentially leads to the typical symptoms of penile plaque formation, penile pain, deviation and erectile dysfunction. A non-surgical therapy based on a clear pathophysiology does not exist although the benefit of several conservative treatment options is under discussion. In the stable stage of the disease patients with Peyronie’s disease frequently undergo penile surgery. Depending on the deviation angle, the penile length and the erectile dysfunction different straightening surgery can be performed. This article provides an overview of the natural history of the disease and describes present conservative management strategies and common surgical techniques for penile straightening.
