About Penile Curvature Correction Surgery

Penile curvature correction surgery, also known as penile plication or Nesbit procedure, is a specialized urological operation designed to straighten a bent or curved penis. This condition, often called Peyronie's disease, can cause pain, difficulty with sexual intercourse, and significant psychological distress. Performed by a skilled urologist, the surgery involves carefully shortening the longer side of the penis or removing plaques of scar tissue to restore a more natural, straight alignment. The goal is to improve both the physical function and the patient's quality of life, enabling comfortable and successful sexual activity. Modern techniques aim to preserve sensation, length, and erectile function.
