Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Improvement of sexual function by increase satisfaction and good vaginal penetration
increase in IIEF score by 5 degrees
6 MOTHES
Study Arms (3)
LI-ESWT group
ACTIVE COMPARATORIntervention include that patients will undergo penile low-intensity extracorporeal shock wave therapy, 6-12 sessions, 1500 shocks per session, two sesssions per week for 3 weeks then 3 weeks break and then 2 sessions per week for 3 weeks.
PDE-5 inhibitors group
ACTIVE COMPARATORIntervention include that patients will intke oral tablets of PDE-5 inhibitors : \- Oral intake of 50 mg once daily for 6 months.
Control group
NO INTERVENTIONPatients will be only followed up without any therapy for assisting erection.
Interventions
The patients in this arm will be subjected to Penile LI-SWT in the following parameters: 6 to 12 sessions with 1500 shocks per session. Each session will comprise the application of 300 shock waves (energy intensity of 0.09 mJ/mm2) to each of five different sites on the penis: three along the penile shaft and two at the crura with Frequency: 4 HZ. Energy level: 8 mJ/mm2. Rate: 120 shocks per minute. -Intervals: 2 treatment sessions per week for 3 weeks, then 3-weeks no-treatment interval, then 3-weeks treatment period of 2 treatment sessions per week.
The patient in this arm will receive 50 mg of phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitors, oral intake once daily for 6 monthes.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- \- Patients will be eligible if he is sexually motivated and potent men with stable relationship of more than 6 months duration who will undergo nerve sparing radical cysto-prostatectomy for organ-confined bladder cancer.
You may not qualify if:
- \- 1. Men with Peyronie's disease. 2. Inflammation in the shock wave area. 3. Evidence of disease failure after surgery. 4. Patients developing postoperative complications requiring hospital readmission after surgery which interferes with the process of SWL.
- \. Unstable medical or psychiatric disorder.
