Summary:
A single arm prospective pilot trial evaluating the safety and the 1-year erectile recovery outcomes of patients undergoing a somatic to autonomic nerve grafting procedure for restoration of erectile function in patients who have lost erectile function following radical prostatectomy for prostate cancer. During this study a total of 10 patients who have persistent erectile dysfunction for more than 18 months post prostatectomy will undergo a post radical prostatectomy nerve restoration procedure (PRP-NR).

Primary Outcome Measures: The primary outcome is specifically the safety of the operation. This will be measured by adverse events as defined by the Clavian-Dindo classification.The measurement varies from Grade I (Best possible outcome) to Grade V (Worst possible outcome)., Grade I - Deviation from normal p/o course. No pharmacological or surgical treatment, endoscopic or radiological interventions were required. Acceptable therapeutic drugs such as anti-emetics, antipyretics, analgesics, diuretics,electrolytes, physiotherapy. Wound infections, small abscess requiring incision at bedside.

Grade II - Normal course altered. Pharmacological management other than in Grade I. Blood transfusions and total parenteral nutrition are also included.

Grade III - Complications that require intervention of various degrees. Grade IIIa are complications that require an intervention performed under local anaesthesia. Grade IIIb are interventions that require general or epidural anaesthesia.

Grade IV - Complications threatening life of patients (including Central Nervous System complications), requiring Intensive Treatment Unit support. Grade IVa are single organ dysfunction (including dialysis). Grade IVb is multi-organ dysfunction.

Grade V - Death of a patient., Through study completion, an average of 2 years
Secondary Outcome Measures: International Index of Erectile Function-5 (IIEF-5), The IIEF-5 is used to determine the prevalence of erectile dysfunction (ED) in a non-selected population using the abridged 5-item version of the International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF-5) as a diagnostic tool.

Each answer has a score from 1 (very low) to 5 (very high). The sum of all the answers gives a final result of 1-7 (Severe ED - Worst Outcome), 8-11 (Moderate ED), 12-16 (Mild-moderate ED), 17-21 (Mild ED) and 22-25 (No ED - Best Outcome)., 4 weeks post PRP-NR|International Index of Erectile Function-5 (IIEF-5), The IIEF-5 is used to determine the prevalence of erectile dysfunction (ED) in a non-selected population using the abridged 5-item version of the International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF-5) as a diagnostic tool.

The main component of the SF-MPQ consists of 15 descriptors (11 sensory; 4 affective) which are rated on an intensity scale as 0 = none, 1 = mild, 2 = moderate or 3 = severe. Three pain scores are derived from the sum of the intensity rank values of the words chosen for sensory, affective and total descriptors.

The sum of the scores gives a range of outcomes; a score of 0 (no pain - Best Possible Outcome) to a score of 45 (Most severe pain - Worst Possible Outcome), 4 weeks post PRP-NR|Short Form McGill Pain Questionnaire (SF-MPQ), The SF-MPQ was designed to measure post-surgical pain.
