Acellular dermal matrix in premature ejaculation: A preliminary study.

Background: To investigate the efficacy of acellular dermal matrix in penis augmentation (ADMPA) for premature ejaculation (PE). Methods: A total of 39 patients treated with ADM in penis augmentation from June 2014 to December 2017 were evaluated. Detailed evaluations on PE were conducted before operation and at the 6-month and 2-year follow-up visits after operation. Self-estimated intravaginal ejaculatory latency time (IELT) and 5-item version of the International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF-5) were used to measure the ejaculation and the erectile function for all subjects. Results: Compared to the baseline data, the IELT and IIEF-5 scores were increased, and PE was relieved at 6 months and 2 years after operation. No major complications occurred in the series. Minor complications were resolved with conservative treatment within 3 weeks. The psychosexual impact of the operation was beneficial in the majority of cases. Conclusion: Our survey systematically evaluated the effects of ADMPA for PE. ADMPA might be an optional surgical method in patients with PE, especially for those who seek penile augmentation. However, given the small amount of cases involved in this study, further studies on the effect of ADMPA for PE were still needed.
