Popis: According to our opinion, so-called venous leakage is no venous disease but a result of impaired cavernous tissue. Since in over 90% of all patients with venous leakage also arterial disease was discovered and since ultrastructural degenerative processes in the cavernous bodies were detected, we consider traditional corrective venous surgery as unphysiological and illogical. We suggest arterial revascularization combined with a mechanical penis banding as a new therapeutical concept.
