There is a paucity of information regarding how surgeryfor CD affects male sexual function.Objectives: To determine the effects of surgery for CD on male sexual function.Methods: A survey was sent to male patients who had surgery for CD at a tertiary care institution between January 1st, 2011 and July1st, 2016. The survey included the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9), short inflammatory bowel disease questionnaire (SIBDQ),and the international index of erectile function (IIEF-5). A retrospective chart review was performed. Statistical analysis was performedusing Fischer’s exact test and two-sided t-test.Results: The survey was sent to 149 men and twenty-one patients (14%) responded. The mean age of respondents was 54.9 years. Onanalysis of patients who completed the IIEF-5, 12 patients (63%) met criteria for erectile dysfunction (ED). Ten patients subjectivelyreported worsened sexual function following surgery (48%). Men who had previously undergone surgery for CD were more likely tohave ED (P = 0.01). Patients who met criteria for depression were more likely to have ED (P = 0.006). Men with more CD symptomswere more likely to have ED: the mean SIBDQ score for men with ED was 4.5, while the mean score for men without ED was 5.8 (P =0.01).Conclusions: Men who undergo surgery for CD experience high rates of sexual dysfunction, with many men reporting their sexualfunctioned worsened following surgery.
