Summary

This study tested whether injecting a man's own bone marrow stem cells into the penis can improve erectile function after prostate removal for cancer. 54 men who had surgery at least a year prior and had low PSA levels participated. The treatment aims to help regain sexual function, but ongoing management may still be needed.
