Abstract Peyronie's disease (PD) is an acquired connective tissue disorder of the tunica albuginea of the corpus cavernosum, characterized by excessive fibrosis and plaque formation. PD can result in significant physical and psychological morbidity; as it may prevent intercourse and cause adverse impacts on partner relationships. The exact etiology and pathophysiology remain unclear, and many misconceptions about the disease associations, course and treatment exist. The disease has two distinct stages. The acute stage is characterized by pain, and disease may progress during this stage. Non-surgical managements at this stage aim to alleviate pain and stabilize the disease. Results for non-surgical treatment are often conflicting. The chronic stage occurs 6-12 months later, where pain disappears and the deformity stabilizes. Surgical treatment is reserved for significant deformity or with inability to penetrative intercourse. The choice of the surgical technique depends on the length of the penis, degree of deformity, erectile function, patients' expectations and surgeon's preference.
