Abstract:In 33 adult mongrel dogs, the function of the intramural ureter was investigated. (A) Bipolar electrodes were placed in both the extravesical ureter and the intramural ureter. Then, an electromyogram (EMG) was recorded from two leads. (B) Cystotomy was performed, needle-type electrodes were inserted into the wall of the ureteral orifice and the extravesical ureter, and the EMG was recorded. (C) A special needle which could record EMG and measure pressure simultaneously was prepared. Then EMG and pressure measu… Show more
