Urological Management of Complications of Penile Constriction Devices:
- Conditions
- Sexual Dysfunction
- Registration Number
- NCT04378478
- Lead Sponsor
- University Hospital, Montpellier
- Brief Summary
Wearing a penile ring is justified by international societies of Urology (AFU, EAU, AUA) only for the treatment of erectile dysfunction with vacuum. In this case, it is a constriction rubber band that can only be worn for 30 minutes.
Nowadays, wearing a cockring device for recreational purposes can lead to complications secondary to ischemia caused by strangulation of the penis and/or scrotum.
The variety of devices and materials used (metallic and/or alloys in particular) sometimes makes it difficult to remove them, requiring expensive surgery and dedicated equipment.
There is no official recommendation for the management of these complications.
