Abstract
The loss of erectile function after prostatectomy deeply affects the male self-image. In addition, there is the fear of being rejected by one’s partner. The danger of withdrawal is very great. This article deals with a metastatic prostate carcinoma patient in palliative care who sought help for his sexual inability, and the syndyastic tech- niques used to compensate for his physical loss. Syndyastic treat- ment focuses on the basic human psychosocial need for accep- tance, warmth, security and closeness. Syndyastische Paartherapie enables the couple to fulfil these needs once again without the pressure of expectations and performance.
