“…In a prospective study, with a small sample size, Burgos et al 15 found that erectile failure decreased after kidney transplantation, with respect to those previously reported in dialysis, from 60 to 45% which is a similar percentage to that shown in the present study for transplant patients. In a small sample of kidney transplant patients, Peskircioglu et al 11 found a prevalence of ED of 32.3%, but this sample had a lower mean age (42.5 vs 52 y in the present study).…”

A transversal study was carried out in order to evaluate the prevalence of erectile dysfunction (ED) in adult kidney transplant patients of our region (N ¼ 243), and to investigate the sociodemographic, analytic, and clinical factors associated with it. To evaluate ED, the Spanish five items version of the International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF-5) was employed. Sociodemographic, analytic, and clinical data, including 12 cardiovascular risk factors, were also collected. A total of 199 patients (82%) were included. The median age was 52 y (43-62 y); 106 patients (54.9%) presented with ED. Variables associated with ED were: higher age; longer time on dialysis prior to transplantation; higher comorbidity; presence of diabetes mellitus; had undergone prostatic surgery or peripheric artheriopathy; lower diastolic pressure; and some anti hypertensive drugs. Logistic Regression Model performed step by step showed (R 2 ¼ 0.52) that factors independently associated with ED were: age, time on dialysis previous to transplant, and peripheric artheriopathy.

Influence of erectile dysfunction on health related quality of life of male kidney transplant patients

The objective of the present study was to investigate if a psychological adaptation capacity exists in kidney transplant bearers, even with ageing, in relation to erectile dysfunction (ED). We studied ED using IIEF-5 and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) using the SF-36 Health Survey, in a large sample of male renal transplant patients (n ¼ 242), searching for the influence of ED on HRQoL. Patients included 199 patients (82%); the median age was 52 y (43-62); 106 patients (54.9%) presented ED. These patients were divided into four groups according to median age. SF-36 scores were worse for ED vs non-ED patients in the first three age groups, but not in age group 4. SF-36 Mental Component Summary was similar for patients with ED and without ED in all age groups. We confirm the hypothesis that a psychological adaptation occurs in renal transplant patients in all age groups, when suffering ED.

“…In most studies, patients regain potency following renal transplant. 2 However, in one longitudinal study, ED did not improve markedly after transplantation. 6 In other cases, particularly in patients who received second or subsequent transplantations, erectile function has been adversely affected by interference with penile arterial blood flow.…”

383ED is a common disorder in men aged 40 years and over. Prevalence of ED increases with age, with 25%, 55% and 65% of men aged 65, 75 and 80 years old, respectively, reporting the disorder. 4 In a cross-sectional study of sexual function of male kidney transplant recipients, ED was considerably more common than it was in the control population, with a prevalence of 55.7% despite the transplant recipients being younger than those in the control group. 5 In that study, age, time on dialysis, and iterative transplants were significantly and negatively related to erectile dysfunction . 5 The increased number of kidney transplants being performed in addition to the improved graft and patient survival rates has resulted in a greater number of patients with ED. 4 Thus, there is an increasing number of men experiencing a major quality of life issue. 4The literature regarding the effect of renal transplantation on patients with ED has been contradictory. In most studies, patients regain potency following renal transplant.2 However, in one longitudinal study, ED did not improve markedly after transplantation. 6 In other cases, particularly in patients who received second or subsequent transplantations, erectile function has been adversely affected by interference with penile arterial blood flow. 6 The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence of ED at our institution in the postrenal transplant population. In addition, we compared several patient characteristics of patients in this population who had ED with those postrenal transplant patients who did not have ED.
