Maintenance treatment of erectile impotence by cavernosal unstriated muscle relaxant injection
GS Brindley
Intracavernosal injection of phenoxybenzamine or papaverine has been tried
on 127 men suffering from erectile impotence. In 113 of them it caused an
erection which should have sufficed for coitus. Seventy-three men have used
such injections, given at home by themselves or their wives, fortnightly or
less often, to make coitus possible after each injection; 54 of them still
do so.
