In urology low-intensity extracorporeal shockwave therapy (LI-ESWT) finds major application in the treatment of erectile dysfunction (ED) after nerve-sparing radical retropubic prostatectomy and Peyronie's disease. We presented a rare case of application of LI-ESWT in a 39-years old man with erectile dysfunction after penile trauma obtained during sexual intercourse.
