This is a chart in Dr. Kim's article that outlines the process by
which prostate cancer surgery may lead to PD like changes:














In the 2009 edition of Current Urology Reports, an article reviews
and discusses adverse changes resulting from both RPs and
corrective PD surgery.  According to the authors, although the
pathophysiology is likely to be different, post RP, some men  
develop penile shortening that may resemble the same process as
seen in PD. Approx 41% of men with erectile dysfunction post RP
surgery have penile fibrotic changes and decreased elasticity.  As
noted in the last edition of this website, a case study review
published in Medical News Today revealed that 17% of men who
underwent a RP developed PD like symptoms.

I have one major complaint about the studies and articles noted
above. To men, their penile dimensions are very important. This
includes both length and girth. Unfortunately, penile shortening is
discussed, but the issue of girth is always omitted.
