The congress “New Frontiers in the Treatment of I.P.P.” was held on March 4–5, 2016, at the Tor Vergata Polyclinic in Rome. It served as a pivotal event for medical professionals and specialists in urology and andrology. Directed by Dr. Gianni Paulis, this theoretical-practical course focused on Induratio Penis Plastica (I.P.P.) and erectile dysfunction, two key areas in modern andrology.
Dr. Gabriele Antonini, a researcher from Sapienza University of Rome, showcased an innovative procedure for treating Peyronie’s disease. He performed the “Scratch” maneuver as an adjunct to modeling, a technique aimed at enhancing therapeutic outcomes. This practical demonstration provided attendees with valuable insights and hands-on learning.
The event featured notable national and international experts, including Prof. V. Gentile, head of the Department of Gynecological, Obstetric, and Urological Sciences at Sapienza University. The congress also overlapped with the Maro-SIA-LAMS Regional Congress, which focused on advancements in erectile dysfunction treatments.
In a related event, the World Congress of Urology in Miami, held at the Coral Gables Hospital, brought together Dr. Antonini and Dr. Paul Perito, a global leader in andrological surgery. This gathering emphasized the importance of surgical and technological innovation in managing urological conditions.
