Summary

Prostate cancer is the most common cancer among Danish men, and the incidence is increasing. Studies have shown a high number needed to treat for each saved prostate cancer related death. Since the treatments incur many complications, there is a need to address these. After prostatectomy, 80% experience erectile dysfunction. Sexual life is a central part of people's identity, self-esteem and quality of life. Stem cells have generated a large amount of promising data suggesting that stem cells can alleviate erectile dysfunction, by regenerating nerves as well as endothelial and smooth muscle cells in the corpus cavernous.
