We want to specifically draw the readers’ attention to a report by Burnett et al. suggesting that pre-surgical treatment with a single dose of erythropoetin may be able to improve erectile function post-surgery. This small study would need to be replicated in a larger, double-blind, randomized study to offer conclusive data, but the potential is fascinating. (See the abstract of the original report or today’s news update for more information.)
