Abstract
Several studies have demonstrated that erectile dysfunction (ED) is associated with cardiovascular diseases; nonetheless, few physicians pay enough attention to take a precise history of potential sexual dysfunction in these patients. The magnitude of this correlation is to the extent that several authors have proposed ED as a cardiovascular risk equivalent. In this review article, we searched for the most significant studies performing in this issue, with special emphasize on prospective studies to provide a comprehensive and precise view on the matter in the cardiovascular disease context.
