Abstract

For the treatment of erectile dysfunction, the authors recommend that prostheses be reserved for cases refractory to all other treatments. Local treatments by injection of erectogenic substances consist of paraverine and prostaglandin E1. A new oral treatment is also available, not with yohimbine or apomorphine, but with sildenafil (viagra).
