This prospective randomized controlled trial (RCT) is designed to provide high level evidence on the efficacy of Low-intensity Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (Li-ESWT) in the treatment of post-Robot-Assisted (RA) Radical Prostatectomy (RP) erectile dysfunction (ED) in addition to PDE5 inhibitors (PDE5i) versus PDE5i alone. Our hypothesis is that early andrological rehabilitation that combines Li-ESWT and PDE5i could lead to faster and better recovery of valid erections for intercourse, with a greater rate of postoperative International Index of Erectile Function-5 (IIEF-5) compared to patients receiving PDE5i alone.
