Abstract

Sexual dysfunction Wth erectile disability is a common complication in spinal cord injured males. Usually their erectile dysfunction are neurogenic in originn. We have begun to apply intra-cavernous injection of prostaglandin E1(PGE1) for management of erectile dysfunction in spinal cord injuries since 1991 and encouraging results have been achieved. We report here a case of chronic spinal cord injury with vasogenic erectile dysfunction who does not respond to intracaver-nous PGE1 injection. We want to clarify that the use of intracavernous PGE1 injection in application to cavernosography and penile blood flow study is of great value in differential diagnosis of erectile dysfunction. Also the rehabilitation team shall keep in mind that vasogenic origin may be a cause of erectile dysfunction in spinal cord injured persons.
