Abstract
|
|
|
Erectile failure is a common complication of diabetes mellitus. We evaluate 2l male diabetic patients with erectile failure. Evaluation was done by CBC,SMA-12, Penile digital systolic pressure index(PDI), Bulbocavernous reflex latency time (BCRL) and serum testosterone and prolactin levels. All of the patients showed normal serum testosterone and prolactin levels. Of 21 patients, only 1 patient showed decreased PDI who also prolonged BCRL. And 12 patients (57%) were showed prolonged BCRL without decreased PDI. This study suggests that penile neuropathy is the most prevalent abnormality in diabetics with erectile failure and may predate vascular abnormalities.
