One hundred ninety-eight impotent men were evaluated between July 1993 and June 1994. A "patient goal-directed" approach was used in all cases. Treatment options presented to patients included: oral yohimbine, vacuum constriction devices, penile self-injection therapy, penile prostheses, and testosterone supplementation when clinically indicated. Thirty-two percent of patients declined treatment, and 67% chose nonsurgical therapy. Only two patients (1%) chose penile prostheses. In August 1994, a survey addressing satisfaction with therapy was mailed to all patients, and 99 men (50%) responded. Of the treated respondents, 80% stated that their therapy was "easy to use," and 70% reported that they were "able to have intercourse." Patients prefer nonsurgical impotence therapy, which restores satisfactory sexual function in most men.
