简要总结
Efficacy of Intracavernous injection of Wharton jelly Mesenchymal stem cells for the treatment of erectile dysfunction in diabetic patients.
详细描述
This study will be conducted at the Cell Therapy Center (CTC), Jordan, in which 22 male patients ranging from 25-70 years diagnosed with erectile dysfunction will be selected. This diagnosis is based on medical history, validated questionnaires, physical examinations, laboratory tests and specific diagnostic tests.
The patients are followed by clinical assessment, laboratory investigations as well as Doppler ultrasound.
The investigators hypothesize that the intracavernous injection of stem cells will facilitate the recovery of erectile function resulting in satisfying clinical outcomes in patients.
