Vascular And Venogenic Erectile Dysfunction Treatment

Vein, Heart, and Vascular Institute

Cardiovascular Doctors & Interventional Cardiologists located in Tampa, FL & Wesley Chapel, FL

Vascular erectile dysfunction (ED) is a condition caused by impaired blood flow to or from the penis, often due to narrowed or blocked arteries (arteriogenic ED) or poor venous outflow control (venogenic ED). Arteriogenic ED results from insufficient blood supply, commonly due to atherosclerosis, while venogenic ED involves the inability of the veins to restrict blood from draining out of the penis during an erection, leading to difficulty maintaining firmness. Endovascular techniques offer minimally invasive treatments for both types. For arteriogenic ED, angioplasty or stenting can restore proper blood flow by widening narrowed arteries. In venogenic ED, embolization—blocking leaking veins using coils or sclerosing agents—helps retain blood within the penis to sustain an erection. These procedures are performed via catheter under imaging guidance and are effective alternatives for patients who do not respond to conventional therapies.

 

Vascular and Venogenic Erectile Dysfunction Treatment Q & A

What Is Vascular or Venogenic Erectile Dysfunction?

Vascular erectile dysfunction (ED) is one of the most common forms of ED and occurs when blood flow to or from the penis is disrupted. It typically falls into two categories:

  • Arteriogenic ED – caused by blocked or narrowed arteries, reducing blood flow to the penis.
  • Venogenic ED – caused by venous leakage, where blood flows into the penis but drains out too quickly, preventing a sustained erection.

Both conditions are rooted in vascular problems, which means they respond best to vascular-based treatments—not just pills.

How Do You Diagnose Vascular ED at Vein, Heart, and Vascular Institute?

At Vein, Heart, and Vascular Institute, we begin with a comprehensive evaluation that includes:

  • Vascular imaging studies
  • Medical and sexual health history
  • Blood flow and hormone analysis

Our board-certified cardiovascular and interventional specialists use these diagnostics to pinpoint whether your ED is arteriogenic, venogenic, or a combination of both—so we can build the most effective, personalized treatment plan for you.

What Are the Treatment Options for Vascular and Venogenic ED?

We specialize in advanced, minimally invasive endovascular treatments designed to restore healthy blood flow and resolve the underlying cause of ED—without surgery or daily medications.

Our leading-edge ED treatments include:

  • Angioplasty for Arteriogenic ED: A catheter-based procedure that opens narrowed or blocked arteries to improve blood flow to the penis, helping to restore natural erectile function.
  • Stenting: Stents may be placed to hold open blood vessels and support long-term penile circulation, especially in cases of recurring arterial blockage.
  • Venous Embolization for Venogenic ED: This advanced procedure seals off the veins that are leaking blood out of the penis too quickly. By correcting venous leakage, we help you achieve and maintain firmer, longer-lasting erections—without pills or implants.

Who Is a Good Candidate for Endovascular ED Treatment?

These treatments are ideal for men who:

  • Have not responded to oral ED medications like Viagra or Cialis
  • Are looking for a non-surgical, long-term solution
  • Have been diagnosed with vascular causes of ED
  • Want to treat the root cause—not just the symptoms—of erectile dysfunction

If you’re unsure whether your ED is vascular in nature, we can help you find out through specialized testing and a detailed consultation.
