“…Furthermore, the existence of a deep dorsal venous valve at the periphery of the Lig. suspensorium has been noted and discussed as a possible factor in the blockage of venous return from the corpus cavernosum [2,3].…”

M. SHIRAI," N. ISHII, S. MITSUKAWA, S, MATSUDA, and M. NAKAMURA Six infertile patients and one patient with ureteral calculus were studied to elucidate the intrapenial hernodynamics of erection. Xe-133 was infused into the corpus cavernosum and visual sexual stimulation (V.S.S.) provided to induce erection. Xe-133 clearance curves declined at a uniform rate in the nonerect penis without V.S.S. Xe-133 clearance curves for five patients with complete erection at V.S.S. indicated a sudden drop upon erection. Unlike previous reports, it was noted that penial erection can occur independently of a venous-return blocking mechanism.

“…Patients requiring a higher dose of cither substance are candidates for pharmacocavernosography. This investigation, w hich may be complemented by cavernosometry, is of paramount importance in diagnosing venous leakage [5][6][7][8]. Under normal conditions the venous outflow of the cavernous bod ies subsides within 20 s once a complete artificial erection has been achieved w ith the help of intracavernosal injection of 10-20 pg pros taglandin Ei and subsequent filling of the corpora cavernosa with contrast medium ( fig.…”

We report here on our surgical experience with venous leakage of the cavernous bodies. Out of 159 patients operated on, 134 were availabe for long-term follow-up. Depending on the cavernosographic findings, one of three different surgical procedures was carried out: ligation of the deep dorsal vein of the penis, spongiosolysis, or ligation of the crura. 18% of the patients undergoing ligation of the deep dorsal vein, postoperatively attained spontaneous erections, while 35% needed adjuvant corpus cavernosum autoinjection therapy. Spongiosolysis gave a more favourable result: spontaneous erections in 30% and vasoactive drug-dependent erections in 35%. Crural ligation did not prove successful. No serious complications were encountered postoperatively. Our data suggest that venous surgery should only be offered to a selected group of patients comprising young impotent men with venous leakage, maybe in combination with arterial disease, and patients suffering from distal venous leakage. Old age, neurogenic disorders causing erectile dysfunction, and diabetes mellitus should represent exclusion criteria for venous surgery.
