2. St. ≥ 3 complications (23.8% vs 24.0%, p = 0.999) or early complications (35.7% vs 32.0%, p = 0.797) between patients with and without LS, respectively. However, a higher proportion of patients with LS experienced late complications (33.3% vs 8.0%, p = 0.020), which were mainly related to wound healing. Satisfaction with erectile function was higher among patients with LS (59.5% vs 320%, p = 0.043).

CONCLUSION: 

AABP patients with LS behave somewhat differently than their non LS counterparts. They are more likely to require skin graft during surgical treatment. Though surgical success and complications are similar, they do experience a higher rate of late complications from impaired wound healing. Work on improving wound healing in this population should be considered.pene
