ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the efficacy of plaque thinning with carbide burs and improved Nesbit technique in the treatment of Peyronie's disease.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Follow-up studies were made on 11 patients with Peyronie's disease treated by plaque thinning with carbide burs and the improved Nesbit technique.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Satisfactory results were achieved in all the cases. Nine cases without ED could now complete sexual intercourse. Of the 8 cases with penile curvature, only 2 failed to be completely corrected. And of the 5 cases with erectile pain, only 2 still had slight intermittent pain during erection. However, neither the incompletely corrected curvature nor the slight intermittent pain affected the patients' sexual life.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Plaque thinning with carbide burs and improved Nesbit technique for the treatment of Peyronie's disease have many advantages, such as easy manipulation, good short-term results, few complications, and rare recurrence, while its long-term results are not yet clear.</p>
