Ureteral Reimplantation Treatment

Penile PRP Therapy

Penile PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) Therapy is a regenerative medical treatment aimed at improving erectile function and addressing penile health issues. PRP therapy involves using components from the patient’s own blood to promote healing and tissue regeneration.

Symptoms Indicating the Need for PRP Therapy

  • Erectile Dysfunction (ED): Difficulty achieving or maintaining an erection.
  • Penile Sensitivity Issues: Reduced sensation or discomfort in the penis.
  • Peyronie’s Disease Symptoms: Presence of penile curvature, lumps, or pain during erections.

PRP Therapy Procedure

  • Blood Collection: A small amount of the patient’s blood is drawn.
  • Preparation of PRP: The blood is processed in a centrifuge to separate the platelet-rich plasma from other blood components.
  • Injection: The PRP is injected into specific areas of the penis, often focusing on regions with scar tissue or areas affecting erectile function.
  • Recovery: Patients may experience mild discomfort or swelling. Most resume normal activities within a few days.

Benefits

  • Regeneration: Promotes healing and tissue regeneration in the penis.
  • Improved Erectile Function: May enhance erectile function and overall penile health.
  • Minimally Invasive: Generally involves minimal downtime and discomfort.

Risks and Complications

  • Pain and Discomfort: Temporary pain or discomfort at the injection site.
  • Swelling and Bruising: Minor swelling or bruising may occur.
  • Infection: Although rare, there is a risk of infection at the injection site.
  • Ineffectiveness: Results can vary, and not all patients may experience significant improvement.

Peyronie’s Disease Surgeries

Peyronie’s Disease is a condition characterized by the formation of fibrous scar tissue inside the penis, causing curved, painful erections. Surgery is considered for patients with severe curvature or functional impairment when other treatments have not been effective.

Symptoms Indicating the Need for Surgery

  • Significant Penile Curvature: Severe curvature affecting sexual function.
  • Painful Erections: Pain during erections that affects sexual activity.
  • Difficulty with Intercourse: Functional impairment making sexual intercourse difficult or impossible.
