Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy in Erectile Dysfunction
Mahmoud Amin Reyad;
Abstract
he results of this pilot study emphasize the efficacy and tolerability of penile LI-ESWT in ED. Our short-term results are extremely encouraging, but demand further evaluation.
In the future, this could be one of the few non pharmacologic treatment modalities that are able to improve EF without any adverse effects. Based on our results, LI-ESWT appears to have the potential to be a rapid and curative therapy for ED.
Even if the therapeutic effect will be short-lasting, it can be easily repeated. The promising results of this pilot study will hopefully encourage basic research to explore and understand the mechanism of action of this energy on biologic systems, as well as assist in finding further applications of this novel therapeutic modality in other fields of medicine.
