ABSTRACT
In this study, 75 patients were subjected to clinical and laboratory investigations. Age, presence of hypertension, smoking history of ischemic heart disease and duration of dialysis were detected. Hemoglobin level, creatinine level, blood urea, albumin and glucose were evaluated. A control group of 148 healthy males, representing the general Egyptian population, was also included in the study. In view of the observed high prevalence of erectile dysfunction [ED] among hemodialysis [HD] patients, it was suggested that a complete health evaluation of male HD patients should include a discussion about erectile function in the standard clinical care program of patients with renal disease
