The vascular supply to the viscera and support­ ing tissue is demonstrated, as well as that portion of the vascular system which continues into the lower extremity. The model is divided into right and left portions. The right portion shows a midsagittal section of the pelvic structures. The left represents a similar section, but the dissection is deeper. Two pieces are remov­ able on the left side; one piece includes the bladder, prostate, and semi­ nal vesicles, and the other includes the penis, left testicle, and scrotum. When all portions are removed, a deeper view of these structures and a deeper dissection of the pelvis can be seen. THE URINARY SYSTEM The portion of the urinary system shown depicts the ureter from the level of the 5th lumbar vertebra, where it passes the common iliac ar­ tery near the bifurcation of thi s artery into the external and internal iliac arteries. The ureter then passes toward the posterior portion of the bladder, beneath the vas deferens, and opens through the wall of the blad­ der at one cranial corner of the trigone on the bladder's interior.

A 66-year-old man with a history of prostatism and benign prostate hypertrophy presented with elevated prostate-specific antigen. Three prostatic biopsies obtained by transrectal ultrasonography (TRUS) were negative for malignancy. Magnetic resonance imaging of the prostate revealed a hypointense signal at the right prostate base on T2-weighted images. FDG positron emission tomography/computed tomography (CT) was performed for further evaluation and demonstrated intense FDG activity, similar to urine, posterior to the prostate. Delayed CT scan showed serpiginous excretion of contrast into the seminal vesicles and peripheral zone of the prostate, corresponding to areas of intense and persistent FDG activity, compatible with seminal vesicle and prostatic reflux of urine resulting in intense FDG uptake. Awareness of this pathological entity that may be a complication of TRUS or due to chronic prostatitis may avoid misinterpretation, especially in the absence of administration of CT contrast to delineate

  • Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia DEFINITION OF
    Introduction Introduction enign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is an increasingly B common condition in aged males. By the age of 60 years, more than 50% of men will have microscopic evidence of the disease, and more than 40% of men beyond this age will have lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) (Chute and Panser, 1993). LUTS are the most common problem that affects BPH patients, and include urinary frequency, urgency, weak stream, straining and nocturia (Trueman et al, 1999) (Wu et al, 2006). Although urologists normally attribute LUTS that are concomitant with BPH to urinary obstruction caused by enlarged prostate, some controversies still exist (Bosch et al, 2008). Several studies have shown that there are correlations between urinary symptoms and prostate volume, peak flow rate or residual urine volume (Madersbacher et al, 1997). However, others have found that prostate volume is not associated with LUTS, and objective parameters cannot predict the severity of symptoms in BPH patients (KEzzeldin et al, 1996) (Tubaroa and Vecchia, 2004). 1 Introduction Because most of these studies have been carried in Western countries, evidence in Oriental populations is still lacking. Almost 20 years ago, Barry and his collagues suggested that by using a simple questionnaire, which was later validated, physicians could quantify urine storage and voiding symptoms reported by patients with BPH or LUTS (Barry et al, 1995). The questionnaire also included a question about quality of life, which can also be called the “bothersome index” or “motivational index” question. That question asked, “If you were to spend the rest of your life with your urinary condition the way it is now, how would you feel about that?” From this was born the International Prostate Symptom Score (I-PSS), which became the gold standard outcome measurement for most clinical trials that assessed responses to interventions for the management of BPH (Becher et al, 2009).

Seven sexually mature male European hedgehogs were used. Following anaesthesia, the animals were scarified with chloroform inhalation. Gross penile characteristics such as length and diameter were thoroughly explored and measu- red using digital callipers. Tissue samples stained with haematoxylin and eosin and Masson’s trichrome for microscopic analysis. The penis of the European hedgehog was composed of a pair of corpus cavernosum penis and the glans penis without corpus spongiosum penis. The urethra at the end of penis, protruded as urethral process, on both sides of which two black nail-like structures, could be observed. The lower part was rounded forming a blind sac (sacculus urethralis) with a me- dian split below the urethra. Microscopically, the penile bulb lacked the corpus spongiosum penis, but, corpus spongiosum glans was seen at the beginning of the free part.

    NOVEL METHOD TO STUDY AUTONOMIC NERVOUS SYSTEM FUNCTION AND EFFECTS OF TRANSPLANTATION OF PRECURSOR CELLS ON RECOVERY FOLLOWING SPINAL CORD CONTUSION INJURY DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Yvette Stephanie Nout, DVM MS ***** The Ohio State University 2006 Dissertation Committee: Professor Jacqueline C. Bresnahan, Adviser Approved by: Professor Michael S. Beattie Professor Lyn B. Jakeman __________________________ Professor Stephen M. Reed Adviser Markus H. Schmidt, MD PhD Graduate Program in Neuroscience ABSTRACT Disruption of bladder and sexual function are major complications following spinal cord injury (SCI). To investigate these behaviors in a rat model of SCI, we developed a method to monitor micturition and erectile events by telemetry. Pressure monitoring has been described for recording penile erections in awake rats and involves placement of a catheter into the corpus cavernosum of the penis. We developed a variation on this technique involving pressure monitoring within the bulb of the corpus spongiosum penis (CSP). Using this technique we can record both erectile and micturition events. This technique was validated in 10 male rats and we demonstrated that telemetric recording of CSP pressure provides a quantitative and qualitative assessment of both penile erections and micturitions. Subsequently we monitored CSP pressures in 7 male rats subjected to SCI. We demonstrated that monitoring of CSP pressure in conscious rats is a valuable and reliable method for assessing recovery of autonomic function. Although recovery of micturition occurs in rats following incomplete SCI, recovery is limited and voiding remains inefficient.

A choice between them is made accorging to karyotype Female phenotype develops spontaneously in the absence of chromosome Y (the absence of SRY gene expression) Male phenotype requires masculinization factors (SRY gene expression, testosterone activity) Genetic sex determination depends on the X and Y chromosomes. XX female katryotype develops female phenotype spontaneously XY male karyotype leads to male phenotype under the influence of expression of the SRY gene, which determines the development of testis. Developing testis produce ● Testosterone - stimulates development of the mesonephric duct and the external genitalia, ● AMH (anti-Müllerian-hormone) – stimulates regression of the paramesonephric duct, External genital organs develop from: genital eminence, genital folds, genital ridges and urogenital sinus SRY SOX9 SRY gene is expressed for a short time (about 6 to 8 weeks) in somatic precursor cells of the cell line of Sertoli cells. SRY gene induces SOX9 gene expression, which controls differentiation of the Sertoli cells.

  • Perineal Nerve Stimulation: Role in Penile Erection
    International Journal of Impotence Research (1997) 9, 11±16 ß 1997 Stockton Press All rights reserved 0955-9930/97 $12.00 Perineal nerve stimulation: role in penile erection A Sha®k Professor and Chairman, Department of Surgery and Experimental Research, Faculty of Medicine, Cairo University, Cairo, Egypt The effect of perineal nerve stimulation on penile erection was studied in ten dogs. Through a para- anal incision, the nerve was exposed in the ischiorectal fossa and a bipolar electrode was applied to it. A radiofrequency receiver was implanted subcutaneously in the abdomen. Upon perineal nerve stimulation, the corporeal pressure and EMG activity of the bulbo- and ischiocavernosus muscles increased; penile erection occured. With increased stimulus frequency up to 80 Hz, the pressure and muscles' response augmented while the latency and duration of response diminished. No further changes occurred above a frequency of 80 Hz (P > 0.05). Response was reproducible inde®nitely after an off-time of double the time of the stimulation phase. Penile erection upon perineal nerve stimulation is suggested to be an effect of corporeal pressure elevation resulting from cavernosus muscles' contraction. In terms of force and speed of contraction, a stimulus frequency of 80 Hz evokes the most adequate cavernosus muscles' contraction. Keywords: pudendal nerve; perineal nerve; penile erection; impotence; electrostimulation Introduction Material and Methods Most cases of erectile dysfunction (ED) have more The study was performed on ten male mongrel dogs than one cause which may work simultaneously.1 of a mean weight of 17.9 Æ 6.2 s.d. kg (range from 14± The cause could be psychologic, hormonal, neuro- 26.2 kg).
