fsPhysioMed announced Saturday that its mechanical penile traction device, the Extender, has been demonstrated to produce from 10 degree to 45 degree improvements in Peyronie's curvatures for study patients. Peyronie's Disease results in an unnatural curvature of the penis caused by scarring within the penile tissue.

The device also produced up to a 2 cm increase in length with accompanying increases in girth. The trial was conducted as a controlled study by Dr. Laurence Levine, of Chicago IL. Dr. Levine, a leading researcher and author in the field of Peyronie's Disease, said, "This was a small, proof of concept trial and the preliminary results are very encouraging indeed. Penile traction appears to offer an effective, non-invasive, and non-surgical treatment option for Peyronie's Disease. This is the first treatment option of its kind that has undergone clinical trials.
