Dynamic corpus cavernosography: effect of papaverine injection.

Abstract: A study was done in 21 men to identify individuals with venous leakage as a cause of impotence. Combined pressure flow measurement and cinecavernosography were performed before and after the injection of papaverine into the corpora. After papaverine injection, erections and/or higher pressures occurred at lower flow rates in all the men. The venous drainage of the corpora decreased or disappeared in most subjects while the corpora became larger and contained more contrast material. The findings suggest that an… Show more

“…Studies have also shown that papaverine has a signi cant inhibitory effect on venous out ow. 8,9 This property is exploited with preoperative injection to allow full dilation of the corporal bodies and increased tissue pliability. Given the dual mechanism of action on erectile function, papaverine can cause priapismic pain, and, as such, we co-administer with ropivacaine to minimize this side effect.…”
