Özet

Introduction: Peyronie's disease (PD) is a wound-healing disorder of the tunica albuginea of the penis which affects 3-9% of adult males. Clinically, any combination of plaque formation, penile pain, angulation and erectile dysfunction may appear. This condition may progress, stabilize or, uncommonly, regress during the initial acute phase (6 - 18 months).
