Abstract
Patients with erectile dysfunction underwent sensory and motor conduction and bulbocavernosus reflex tests to determine the incidence of peripheral nerve involvement. Of a total of 111 patients, abnormal sensory conduction was found in 87 (78%), abnormal motor conduction in 56 (50%), and abnormal bulbocavernosus reflex in 40 (36%). Most of these patients had other medical problems. Objective evidence of peripheral nerve involvement helped in the management of these patients.
