RESUMO -Trinta indivíduos portadores de doença de Parkinson (DP) e 30 indivíduos controle foram estudados prospectivamente, através do Índice Internacional de .unção Erétil (II.E) a propósito de avaliar a ocorrência de disfunção erétil (DE). Dos pacientes com DP (idade mediana de 59 anos), 46,66% referiram prática de atividade sexual. Todos parkinsonianos usavam medicação antiparkinsoniana. Neste grupo, 30,00% tinham hipertensão arterial e 6,66% diabetes melitus. No grupo controle (idade mediana de 63 anos), 76,66% declararam prática de atividade sexual; 46,6% tinham hipertensão arterial e 6,66% diabetes mellitus. Escore médio para portadores de DP no II.E foi 34 e para os controles 50. As principais diferenças entre os dois grupos foram quanto à função erétil, função orgasmo e satisfação com a relação sexual. O II.E é uma escala amplamente aceita para avaliação da disfunção erétil. Os dados obtidos sugerem que a DE é mais frequente entre parkinsonianos, ressaltando o papel da DP como causa de DE nesse grupo.PALAVRAS-CHAVE: doença de Parkinson, disfunção erétil, índice internacional da função erétil. Assessment of erectile dysfunction in patients with Parkinson´s diseaseABSTRACT -Thirty men having Parkinson´s disease (PD) and 30 controls were studied prospectively by the use of the International Index of Erectile .unction (IIE.) to assess erectile dysfunction (ED). Of the patients with PD (mean age of 59 years), 46.66% referred to the practice of sexual activity. All of the parkinsonians were using antiparkinsonian medication. In the control group (mean age of 63 years), 76.66% referred to the practice of sexual activity, 46.60% to arterial hypertension and 6.66% to diabetes mellitus. The median score for the PD group according to the IIE. was 34, and that for the controls 50. The main differences between the two groups were in the erectile function, orgasmic function and satisfaction with the sexual relationship. The IIE. is a multidimensional scale widely accepted to assess the ED. The data obtained suggest that ED is more frequent among parkinsonians and points out to the role of DP in the genesis of ED.KEY WORDS: Parkinson s disease, erectile dysfunction, international index of erectile dysfunction.
