“…The perineal approach, popularised by Young (1 922) for the resection of seminal vesicles, must be done carefully to avoid injury to the rectum, external sphincter and pudendal nerve. Dillon and Blaisdell (1923) used the perineal approach to perform seminal vesiculectomy and stated that potency was not affected by the procedure. Walsh and Donker (1982) studied the anatomical course of the branches of the pelvic plexus in the male fetus and newborn for the preservation of potency following radical prostatectomy and showed that the branches that innervate the corpora cavernosa and rectum run down to the membranous urethra, where they traverse the urogenital diaphragm and pass behind the dorsal penile artery into the corpora cavernosa.…”

Fourteen patients with hypospadias were treated surgically for either an enlarged prostatic utricle (6) or vagina masculina (8). Six vaginae masculinae were removed by an extravesical abdominal approach. One enlarged prostatic utricle was removed by the perineal approach. Three enlarged utricles were removed by an abdominoperineal approach. The transtrigonal approach was recently used for three enlarged utricles and one vagina masculina in four patients. Surgical results in these 14 patients were satisfactory. One post-operative complication of transient mild bilateral vesicoureteric reflux was seen after a transtrigonal removal of an enlarged utricle. Potency was not affected in any approaches in four patients who were older than 12 years. The transtrigonal approach was found to be the best for good exposure of the lesion.
