Intralesional Therapy Articles

Studies assessing the efficacy of intralesional verapamil injection in the treatment of Peyronie's disease have yielded mixed results. The purpose of this meta-analysis is to systematise the existing literature on the efficacy of intralesional verapamil injection when used in the treatment of Peyronie's disease.

Introduction: Collagenase clostridium histolyticum (CCH) is the first and only licensed medical treatment for men with Peyronie's disease (PD). Published literature shows intralesional CCH injection as an effective and safe minimally invasive treatment in a specific subgroup of PD patients.

Conservative therapies for Peyronie's disease (PD) aim to treat early-stage disease by improving clinical outcomes such as penile curvature, penile length erectile dysfunction, and pain.

To summarise the available evidence regarding injection and mechanical therapies for PD treatment.

Medical treatment of Peyronie's disease (PD) in terms of intralesional therapy is still a matter of debate.

To compare the efficacy of different classes of intralesional therapy with a network meta-analysis (NMA) method.

To analyze the literature on current conservative treatment options for Peyronie's disease (PD).

Conservative therapy with intralesional collagenase clostridium histolyticum (CCH) is safe and efficacious in either the acute or chronic phases of PD.

Several intralesional therapeutic protocols have been proposed for the treatment of Peyronie's disease. Among all, hyaluronic acid (HA) and verapamil have been differently tested. We aimed to evaluate the efficacy of intralesional verapamil (ILVI) compared with intralesional HA in patients with early onset of Peyronie's disease (PD).

INTRODUCTION - Hyaluronic acid has been shown to be efficacious in decreasing scar formation, inflammation, and oxidative stress.

AIM - To assess the efficacy of intralesional injection of hyaluronic acid in patients affected by Peyronie's disease.

Peyronie's disease is a condition that causes abnormal healing of the tunica albuginea, causing penile curvature. It is difficult to treat and its management is continuing to evolve. Proposed non-surgical treatments have included oral, topical, intralesional, extracorporeal shockwave, and traction therapy.

To compare in a prospective, non-randomized fashion the outcomes of Collagenase Clostridium Histolyticum (CCH) and surgical interventions (tunical plication [TP] and partial plaque excision and grafting [PEG]) in patients with PD.

Peyronie's Disease (PD) is a superficial fibrosing disorder of the penis resulting in plaque formation and penile deformity. Once considered rare, PD has more recently been found in up to 13% of men, and can negatively affect sexual and psychosocial function of both patients and their partners.

Peyronie's disease (PD) is a fibrotic disorder that leads to plaque formation in ∼3-9% of adult men. Connective tissue buildup results in plaque formation, penile curvature and shortening, and in some cases, pain.
