Abstract
Impotence is a common sexual dysfunction, estimated to affect almost 10 million American men. It may result from a primary disorder of the male reproductive system or, more commonly, from physical or psychogenic disturbances. Recent advances in understanding of the pathophysiology of erection have led to the development of new nonsurgical treatment methods, which are discussed in part 1. Part 2, beginning on page 137, reviews surgical treatment.Keywords
