The origin of Peyronie's disease remains obscure although the first report of this condition dates back to 1743. The disease prevalence in 388.6 in 100,000 population and little physiopathologic information is available. Repeated microtrauma to the tunica albuginea appears to favor the onset of inflammatory phenomena which result in fibrosis and calcification. The disease activity produces a microvascularization around the fibrocalcific plaques. We studied the evolution of the inflammatory process in Peyronie's disease relative to clinical symptoms, in order to optimize treatment follow-up.
