Popis: Introduction Acquired penile curvature and congenital penile curvature are the most frequent causes of penile deformity. The correspondence between patients’ opinion of the degree of penile curvature and objective measures is inadequately studied. The primary objective of the current study was to correlate patient estimates of the degree of penile angulation with objective measures performed by trained specialists. The secondary objective was to study if there are any differences in the real and perceived magnitude of curvature among patients affected by acquired penile curvature (APC) versus patients with congenital penile curvature (CPC).
