In addition, corporal fibrosis is associated with difficult <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">PP<\/jats:styled-content> implantation. The preoperative use of vacuum erectile devices (<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">VED<\/jats:styled-content>) is an uncommon physical treatment for such concerns. Therefore, the current randomized controlled study assessed two outcomes: whether pre\u2010operative <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">VED<\/jats:styled-content> use for a month before surgery would significantly increase flaccid stretched penile length (<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">SPL<\/jats:styled-content>) on the day of surgery, and facilitate easier corporal dilatation intraoperatively. Fifty\u2010one patients scheduled for <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">PP<\/jats:styled-content> implantation for <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">ED<\/jats:styled-content> were randomized to either intervention group (pre\u2010operative <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">VED<\/jats:styled-content> use; 10\u201315\u00a0min\/day for \u226530\u00a0days; Group A; <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a025), or control group (no intervention; Group B; <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a026). A research assistant (blinded to the treatment assignments) recorded <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">SPL<\/jats:styled-content> at baseline (initial consultation) and on day of surgery. The surgeons performing the <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">PP<\/jats:styled-content> implantation (also blinded to the treatment assignments) provided subjective assessments of the ease of corporal dilatation. Baseline patient characteristics, demographics, and comorbidities were the same in both groups. Baseline measurements (<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">SPL<\/jats:styled-content>\u20101) were 10.71\u00a0\u00b1\u00a01.28 and 10.87\u00a0\u00b1\u00a01.26\u00a0cm in Group A and Group B, respectively; and the day of surgery measurements (<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">SPL<\/jats:styled-content>\u20102) were 11.50\u00a0\u00b1\u00a01.33 and 11.06\u00a0\u00b1\u00a01.34\u00a0cm in Group A and Group B, respectively. In terms of outcomes: mean <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">SPL<\/jats:styled-content> increase in Group A was significantly more by a mean of 0.80\u00a0\u00b1\u00a00.38\u00a0cm (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u00a0&lt;\u00a00.05) compared to Group B; and surgeons\u2019 subjective report of surgical ease indicated smoother corporal dilatation for Group A compared to Group B. <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">VED<\/jats:styled-content> use (10\u201315\u00a0min\/day during the month prior to <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">PP<\/jats:styled-content> implantation) was associated with significantly increased <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">SPL<\/jats:styled-content> on day of surgery, and facilitated easier corporal dilatation intraoperatively.
