(171) The Effects of Pretreatment with Xiaflex on Penile Curvature Correction with Manual Modeling During and After IPP placement.

Introduction: There are a variety of treatment modalities available to treat Peyronie's disease (PD), including collagenase clostridium histolyticum (Xiaflex) injections. Patients with concomitant erectile dysfunction (ED) and PD are best served by insertion of an inflatable penile prosthesis (IPP) in order to adequately treat both conditions. Many PD patients may undergo other PD treatments, including Xiaflex, prior to IPP implantation. There are multiple methods of curvature treatment during IPP surgery, and manual modeling is the predominant method in our practice. Little data exists regarding whether Xiaflex treatments prior to IPP placement influence changes in penile curvature during and after IPP surgery with manual modeling. Objective: The primary objectives were assessing the impact of pre-treatment with Xiaflex on penile curvature immediately after IPP implantation and after manual modeling. The secondary objective was change in penile curvature post-operatively. Methods: All IPP patients with known preoperative penile curvature with and without a history of Xiaflex injections undergoing IPP placement by a single surgeon from January 2017 to June 2023 were included in this IRB-approved (IRB 00031589) retrospective series. All patients had a 3-piece Coloplast Titan Touch IPP (Coloplast, Minneapolis, MN, USA) ranging 16-24cm in length (mean 19.8 ± 1.9cm) with 0-3cm rear tips (mean 1.4 ± 0.9cm). Goniometer was used to assess curvature during preoperative intracavernosal injection and duplex Doppler ultrasound, at multiple points intraoperatively, and postoperatively at 2 weeks, 6 weeks, and 6 months. Biplanar curvatures were recorded as primary and secondary values. SPSS (IBM, Armonk, NY, UA) was used for statistical analyses, which included t-tests, chi-squared tests, and ANOVA. Results: Sixty-one patients were included. Preoperative curvature was 35° ± 17° (10° to 70°) for the Xiaflex cohort (n=11) and 41° ± 15° (20° to 80°) for the Xiaflex naïve cohort (n=50). At the time of IPP placement, patients previously treated with Xiaflex had a 19° ± 12° absolute reduction in primary penile curvatures, corresponding to a 45% ± 36% improvement (25° reduction to 5° worsening), while Xiaflex naïve patients had a 20° ± 13° absolute reduction and 54% ± 23% improvement (50° reduction to no change). Similar mean curvature reductions were seen with IPP placement in primary dorsal curves in the Xiaflex cohort (n=7, 21° ± 4°, 51% ± 12%, 25° to 15° reduction) and Xiaflex naïve cohort (n=24, 21° ± 9°, 51% ± 22%, 40° to 5° reduction). There was little difference in change in curvature after modeling between the Xiaflex (11° ± 3°, 63% ± 23%, 15° to 5° reduction) and Xiaflex naïve patients (14° ± 9°, 70% ± 20%, 40° reduction to 5° worsening). Interval assessments postoperatively were also comparable. Sample size precluded assessment of statistical significance among groups. Conclusions: Preoperative treatment of PD with Xiaflex does not impede nor significantly improve curvature correction with IPP implantation and manual modeling. Similar changes in penile curvatures were seen in both groups regardless of curvature direction, modeling, or postoperative interval. In patients with severe PD, Xiaflex may be a useful tool to improve preoperative penile curvatures such that they may be more easily correctable with an IPP.
