Uma pequena percentagem dos problemas de disfunção eréctil pode ser tratada com cirurgia para reparar artérias danificadas e obstruções
Características
Normalmente, a cirurgia só é recomendada perante a ineficácia ou inadequação de outros tratamentos médicos.
O procedimento cirúrgico mais comum consiste no implante de uma prótese, que envolve a inserção de cilindros sintéticos no interior do pénis.
A segunda técnica cirúrgica consiste na reparação dos vasos sanguíneos do pénis e é realizada em homens que tenham sofrido uma lesão que afecte a circulação sanguínea.
Se a cirurgia for considerada uma opção, o seu médico direccioná-lo-á para um especialista.
