Abstract

The articles in this section of the Journal support the theory that the lesion of Peyronie's disease is a scar that has developed following trauma to the erect penis in a susceptible individual. The scar involves only the tunica albuginea and does not extend into the erectile tissue. Factors related to the formulation of this scar, discussed on a biochemical and cellular level, are elucidated in the following papers.
