ESSM Newsletter # 39

Contents Welcome Address The huge success of ISSM/ESSM 2018 Lisbon is just behind us and expectations for the upcoming ESSM 2019 meeting in Ljubljana, Slovenia, are gaining momentum. In this issue of ESSM TODAY we relive some of the high- lights of the Lisbon meeting which point in the direction of what the future hot topics in Sexual Medicine will be. Stem cell therapy or collagenase: which will be considered the next gold standard for the treatment of Peyronie’s disease? What will be the indications/ramifications of stem cell therapy in Sexual Medicine? And what about ESWT? How long before it becomes an established first line treatment for erectile dysfunction? As always, many questions await us and answers abound and ESSM will do its best to present the facts based upon our vast, cumulative experience. In the meantime, this summer 2018, the sun shines upon the European Society of Sexual Medicine!
