Effect of Kidney Transplant on Erectile Dysfunction and Orgasmic Function

Introduction: The prevalence of erectile dysfunction increases with advancing age. Patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) are candidates for erectile dysfunction due to hypertension, uremia, depression and endocrine reasons. Erectile dysfunction is also very common in kidney transplant recipients. In our study, we aimed to evaluate the effect of renal transplantation (RT) on erectile function. Materials and Methods: Etiological factors of chronic renal failure, comorbidities, time elapsed after RT, duration of ESRD, and IIEF-15 scores of patients who underwent RT were discussed. International erectile function index (IIEF-15) scores of patients who underwent RT were evaluated before and after transplantation. Patients who had a kidney transplant and were sexually active with a stable partner were included in the study. IIEF-15 scores of the patients before and after RT were scored. It was evaluated in 5 different parameters (erectile function, orgasmic function, sexual desire, sexual satisfaction, general satisfaction). Results: The mean age of the study participants was 48.6. The mean duration of the participants after RT was 5.9 years. The duration of ESRD was determined as 6.48 years. Erectile function, sexual desire, sexual satisfaction and general satisfaction scores increased compared to pre-RT and the p value was found to be insignificant 0.12-0.16-0.58-0.60, respectively, and the orgasmic function significantly improved. Conclusion: Although RT did not significantly contribute to erectile function, it contributed positively to orgasmic function.

Böbrek Naklinin Erektil Disfonksiyon ve Orgazm Fonksiyonu Üzerine Etkisi

Öz:

Giriş: İlerleyen yaş ile beraber erektil disfonksiyon prevelansı artmaktadır. Son dönem böbrek yetmezliği olan hastalar (SDBY) hipertansiyon, üremi, depresyon ve endokrin nedenlerden dolayı erektil disfonksiyon için aday hastalardır. Böbrek nakli alıcılarında da erektil disfonksiyon çok sık görülmektedir. Biz de çalışmamızda renal transplantasyonun (RT) erektil fonksiyon üzerindeki etkisini değerlendirmeyi amaçladık. Gereç ve Yöntem: RT yapılmış hastaların kronik böbrek yetmezliği etyolojik faktörleri, ek hastalıkları, RT sonrası geçen süre, SDBY süresi, IIEF-15 skorları ele alındı. RT yapılmış hastaların Uluslararası erektil fonksiyon indeksi (IIEF-15) skorları nakil öncesi ve sonrası için değerlendirildi. Çalışmaya böbrek nakli olan ve stabil bir partnerle cinsel olarak aktif olan hastalar çalışmaya dahil edildi. Hastaların RT öncesinde ve sonrasındaki IIEF-15 skorları puanlandı. 5 ayrı parametrede (erektil fonksiyon, orgazmik fonksiyon, cinsel istek, cinsel memnuniyet, genel memnuniyet) değerlendirildi. Bulgular: Çalışmaya katılanların ortalama yaşı 48,6. Katılımcıların RT sonrasında geçen süresi ortalama 5,9 yıldı. SDBY süresi 6,48 yıl olarak saptandı. RT öncesine göre IIEF-15 in 4 parametresinde erektil fonksiyon, cinsel istek, cinsel memnuniyet, genel memnuniyet skorları RT öncesine göre artmış olup p değeri sırasıyla 0,12-0,16-0,58-0,60 anlamsız olarak saptanmış olup orgazmik fonksiyonu anlamlı derecede iyileştirmiştir. Sonuçlar: RT erektil fonksiyon üzerine anlamlı katkısı olmasa da orgazmik işleve olumlu yönde katkısı olmuştur.
