Anatomical studies of the neurovascular bundle and cavernosal nerves

Costello, Anthony J., Brooks, Matthew, Cole, Owen J.·2004·BJU International

Abstract

OBJECTIVE: To accurately define the anatomy of the neurovascular bundle (NVB) in men. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The NVB was microdissected in detail bilaterally in 12 fixed human male adult cadavers. The anatomy of the NVB and its relationship to surrounding pelvic structures was ascertained in each specimen. RESULTS: Previous reports of the anatomy of the NVB have not mentioned its levator ani and anterior rectal component. The anatomy of the cavernosal nerves is such that accurate graft anastomosis to proximal and distal cavernosal nerve segments is extremely difficult. CONCLUSION: The current anatomical description of the cavernosal nerve and NVB is inaccurate.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
