In recent years, several procedures have been successfully employed for the treatment of patients with impotence. Implantation of penile prosthesis is favored for organic impotence. Surgical revascularization of penile artery is attempted for arteriogenic impotence and surgery for producing a mechanical obstruction in the penile venous outflow for venous impotence. Here in, the current surgical procedures for the treatment of erectile dysfunction are reviewed and our experience on the treatment of venous impotence is described.
