We describe a procedure to expand contractures of the tunica albuginea by multiple full thickness relaxing incisions followed by inlay of tailored temporalis fascia free grafts. This technique is performed without resection of the tunica albuginea, although in the case of calcified plaques the
OBJECTIVE
We compared tunica vaginalis applied as a flap versus a graft for covering defects in the ventral tunica albuginea in a rabbit model.
METHODS
We used 18 New Zealand White rabbits in the study. The urethra was mobilized off of the corpus cavernosum. A defect was created in the ventral
OBJECTIVE
To explore various tunica albuginea plasty for penile curvature and their efficacies.
METHODS
From July 2005 to July 2008, there were a total of 8 patients with a mean age of 34 ± 9 years old (range: 23 - 47) undergoing corrective surgery for various types of penile curvature. Among them,
In patients with refractory Peyronie's disease, satisfactory sexual rehabilitation with correction of chordee and amelioration of local pain and tenderness can be achieved with wide excision of the plaque, followed by grafting with the tunica vaginalis from the testes. However, one must be extremely
OBJECTIVE
To characterize the feasibility of the surgical replacement of the penile tunica albuginea (TA) and to evaluate the value of a porcine bladder acellular matrix (BAM) graft.
METHODS
Acellular matrices were constructed from pigs' bladders by cell lysis, and then examined by scanning electron
Functional estimates of affinity for endo-6-methoxy-8-methyl-8- azabicyclo[3.2.1]oct-3-yl-2,3-dihydro-2-oxo-1H-benzimidazole-1-carboxyla te hydrochloride (DAU 6285) were made at the 5-hydroxytryptamine4 (5-HT4) receptor in isolated preparations of rat esophageal tunica muscularis mucosae (TMM) and
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the use of single-layer small intestinal submucosa (SIS) and tunica vaginalis flap (TVF) for covering defects in the ventral surface of the tunica albuginea to correct severe penile chordee.
METHODS
In all, 24 New Zealand white rabbits had a rectangular area excised from the
OBJECTIVE
To study the value of an acellular matrix graft of the tunica albuginea for reconstruction of the penis in cases of severe Peyronie's disease.
METHODS
In nine mongrel dogs, an acellular matrix graft of the tunica albuginea was used to cover a 30 x 10 mm2 tunical defect. Equal numbers of
OBJECTIVE
Residual urethral defects after failed hypospadias surgery present difficulties in reconstruction. In these situations, repair using vascularized tissue flaps remains ideal, yet challenging. In order to offer more surgical alternatives in these cases, the use of vascularized tunica
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the postoperative effectiveness of ventral lengthening with a tunica vaginalis flap. Correcting penile curvature is an essential step in proximal hypospadias surgery. It is logical to lengthen the ventral radius using a graft; however, penile curvature would recur owing to a
