Abstract

This article describes the evolution or revolution in the management of erectile dysfunction over the centuries. In recent history there has been a rapid movement away from a predominant role for the specialist towards the primary care physician. The physician is increasingly faced with the need to individualise therapy to meet patient expectations.

International Journal of Impotence Research (2001) 13, Suppl 3, S3-S7.
