description | Background To determine the impact of Penile Mondor’s disease (PMD) in patients with erectile dysfunction (ED). Methods Forty-seven patients diagnosed with PMD were included in the study and analyzed prospectively. The patients were divided into two groups according to the presence of ED at admission. The patients with ED were named Group 1, and those without ED were named Group 2. The International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF-5) and Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI) forms at admission, 3rd, and 6th months were compared. Results There were 21 (44.6%) patients in Group 1 and 26 (55.4%) patients in Group 2. The mean patient ages in Group 1 and Group 2 were 38.1 ± 7.5 and 26.9 ± 10.3 years, respectively (p < 0.001). The mean admission IIEF-5 score was 19.52 ± 1.21 in Group 1 and 22.92 ± 1.23 in Group 2. After treatment, the mean IIEF-5 scores in Group 1 were 19.24 ± 1.14 and 19.09 ± 1.09 at the 3rd and 6th months, respectively. The mean IIEF-5 scores in Group 2 was 22.77 ± 0.99 and 22.96 ± 1.08 at 3rd and 6th months, respectively. In Group 1, the 6th-month IIEF-5 score was lower than the initial score (p = 0.026). In Group 1, the mean BAI score at 6 months increased compared to admission (6.0 ± 1.27 vs 5.43 ± 1.43, p = 0.015). Conclusion PMD can worsen symptoms in men with ED who have a low IIEF5 score. The anxiety of recurrence of PMD during sexual intercourse may have caused this situation, or this may also be due to the natural progression of ED. |
