Peyronies Disease

What is Peyronie's Disease?

Peyronie’s disease is the formation of hardened tissue (plaque) in the penis that can cause pain, curvature, and distortion, mainly during erection. The plaque itself is benign, or noncancerous. The penis consists of two columns of erectile tissue (the corpora cavernosa); the corpus spongiosum, which contains the urethra that carries urine and semen from the body; and the tunica albuginea sheath that surrounds the erectile tissue. With Peyronie’s disease, the dense, fibrous scar tissue or plaque is formed in the tunica albuginea.

Expensive surgery is one option to remove the plaque but many men with Peyronies have benefited from a much cheaper solution by using the ProExtender traction device. The Danish-made doctor-designed device is used in hundreds of clinics and hospitals worldwide specifically for the treatment of Peyronie's.
