Background: We performed a meta-analysis to evaluate the efficacy and safety of short-term (6 months), regular (OaD) and on-demand (PRN) regimens of phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitors (PDE5-Is) in treating erectile dysfunction (ED) after nerve-sparing radical prostatectomy (NSRP).Methods: We conducted a literature search in August 2016. Sources included PubMed, EMBASE, and MEDLINE databases. The main outcome was International Index of Erectile Function-Erectile Function (IIEF-EF) domain score, and the secondary outcome was treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs).Results: Eight articles involving 13 randomized controlled trials (RCTs) were used in this analysis: they suggested that PDE5-Is can improve the IIEF-EF distinctly in comparison with placebo in short and long term (mean difference [MD]: 2.26, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.45-3.08, P < 0.00001, and MD: 4.5, 95% CI: 3.6-5.4, P < 0.00001), and long-term use of PDE5-Is (>6 months) can improve the IIEF-EF distinctly in comparison with short-term use of PDE5-Is (
