@entity546 is common as an emergency and should be accurately diagnosed and treated. We analysed 22 @entity1 with @entity546 admitted to the emergency unit of Dubrava University Hospital during a 4-year period. According to the American Association for the Surgery of @entity130 five-grade classification of @entity546 , there were 14 grade I, 6 grade II and 2 grade III cases. Diagnosis was mainly based on clinical and ultrasonography findings, and in some cases on cavernosography. Nineteen @entity1 underwent immediate surgery and three @entity1 received conservative therapy. On outpatient follow up, sexual function was assessed by use of the 5-item International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF-5) test at 3 and 12 months of injury. At 3-month follow up, moderate, mild and no @entity323 was recorded in 5, 6 and 11 @entity1 respectively (mean IIEF-5: 19.62). At 12-month follow up, mild @entity323 was found in only one @entity1 (IIEF-5: 20), whereas all other @entity1 were free from @entity323 (mean IIEF-5: 23.75). The 12-month follow up yielded a higher statistical difference (P < 0.001) when compared with 3-month follow up. Study results indicated that appropriate treatment of @entity546 resulted in complete recovery of sexual function within 12 months.
