Abstract
NPTR recording during the acute phase after nerve sparing radical prostatectomy showed residual erectile function as early as the first night after catheter removal. These results are significant for selecting adequate pharmacological treatment for optimal therapy and rehabilitation of satisfactory erections and sexual function. In cases of early nocturnal tumescence, application of a PDE5 inhibitor can support successive organ rehabilitation. However, if tumescence does not occur, penile injection therapy is recommended.
