Abstract

Due to the poor results obtained in the treatment of Peyronie's disease by ionophoresis and ultrasound, using the classical buffer solution of the cortisone thiomucase type, the authors have experimented ionophoresis with a new product: orgoteine a dismutase superoxide. Austrian authors have already demonstrated the value of this product. Its mechanism of action is still uncertain but it has an experimentally well demonstrated antiinflammatory activity. The good results are obvious not only on the pain, but also on the induration and incurvation, permitting the resumption of sexual intercourse in more than 75% of cases.
