The presence of calcified plaques is one of the few unequivocal indications for surgery of Peyronie's disease. The mean size of plaques described in the literature is 1.5-2 cm whereby it may vary from 1 mm all along the penis. The authors treated successfully an unusually large calcified plaque 7 x 0.8 cm with excellent postoperative results--restoration of the patient's full sexual activity which was not possible before operation.
