What
can the causes of Peyronie’s disease be?
Despite the
time gone by since its clinical knowledge, the
disease continues unknown from the etiopathogenic
point of view. There are many factors implied in it:
existing infection, genetic predisposition, vascular
problems, ingestion of determined drugs, diabetes,
hypertension, and cases in which individuals suffer
a lot of stress.
Although there
is agreement to accept this disease as inflamatory,
its originating mechanism is unknown. There is
probably more than one responsible factor.
