Erection obtained with a vacuum pump can be a solution for the impotent man. In this study it was proposed to and discussed with couples, eleven of whom chose it as treatment. The mean age of the men was 54 years and 8 months. The estimated etiology of their erectile disorder was: biogenic, 4, mixed, 7. A 25-item questionnaire was administered to each couple. Results show that the device was a good solution and improved the sex life of both partners. They manifested a fair degree of satisfaction with its use. The presence and the participation of the female partner should be considered in therapeutic recommendations for erectile disorders.
