Many experiments have been devised to elucidate the relative
contribution of the arterial and the venous systems to erectile
capacity. I n this century Lydston and Lowsley and B r a y were
the first to report the venous contribution to impotence, but
later investigators attributed erection solely to increased arterial f l o w . Accordingly, most attention was given to investigation of the arterial system by both noninvasive and invasive
techniques. The controversy regarding the role of the venous
system had its basis i n the conflicting results from the human
penile perfusion studies of Newman and Reiss and the
-xenon wash-out studies of Shirai and associates and Wagner and Uhrenholdt.
Recent studies have clearly demonstrated that penile erection
is the result of three synergistic hemodynamic events: increased
arterial flow, sinusoidal relaxation, and venous outflow restriction.
W i t h the recognition of the importance of both the
arterial and venous systems and the frequency of both arterial
insufficiency and venous incompetence as causes of organic
impotence, we undertook this study to determine the c o n t r i bution of each system i n the hemodynamics of erection and the
effect of impairment of each alone or i n combination on erectile
function i n dogs.

MATERIALS AND METHODS
Ten healthy adult mongrel dogs, weighing 20 to 30 kg., were
used i n this study. Dogs were premedicated w i t h acepromazine
(0.1 mg./kg. body weight [B.W.]) and anesthetized w i t h i n t r a venous sodium pentobarbital (30 mg./kg./B.W. w i t h bolus i n jections of 25 to 50 mg./hr. as needed to maintain an adequate
level of anesthesia and spontaneous respiration). Fluid intake
consisted of intravenous infusion of normal saline solution (two
ml./kg. B . W . / h r . ) .

period and peak intracavernous pressure.
flow probe w i t h a 1.5-mm. diameter (Transonic System, Inc.;
Ithaca N.Y.) was placed to record arterial blood flow.
The entire penis was denuded, exposing both corpora caver­
nosa down to the ischial rami. A 21-gauge butterfly needle was
placed i n the corpus cavernosum and connected to a Statham
pressure transducer for intracavernous pressure recording on a
Grass polygraph. Systemic blood pressure was monitored
through a 16-gauge angiocatheter placed i n the femoral artery
and connected to the same polygraph.
For reduction of penile blood flow, the terminal part of the
aorta below the inferior mesenteric artery was dissected circumferentially and a screw clamp (Bel-Art) capable of controlling
flow i n flexible tubing up to 14 m m . (outer diameter) was placed
around it. Once all monitoring and stimulating devices were i n
place, an intravenous bolus of 1000 U sodium heparin was
delivered for anticoagulation w i t h a maintenance dosage of 50
U to ensure t h a t a l l pressure-recording cannulae remained
patent.
Baseline measurements of the arterial blood flow and intra­
cavernous pressure were recorded. Erection was induced by
cavernous nerve stimulation and the following were measured:
peak and maintenance penile blood flow; latency period (time
from the beginning of stimulation u n t i l the maximal intracav­
ernous pressure was attained); rise i n intracavernous pressure;
and the duration of detumescence (time from cessation of
stimulation to return to baseline intracavernous pressure).
Venous leakage study. For creation of cavernous leakage,
needles of different sizes (30 to 16G) were inserted into one
corpus cavernosum. Previous heparinization helped to keep the
needles patent. Electrostimulation of the cavernous nerve was
repeated w i t h each needle w i t h the same stimulation parame­
ters as i n the control study. I n addition, the volume of blood
leaking from the corpus cavernosum during the period of s t i m ­
ulation was measured.
Reduction of arterial blood flow. Penile blood flow was reduced
by 25 and 50 per cent by means of the screw clamp around the
terminal aorta, and neurostimulation was repeated.
Venous leakage and reduction in arterial flow. The erectile
response to neurostimulation was recorded again i n the pres­
ence of both cavernous leakage and reduced penile blood flow
w i t h the same parameters as i n the control study.
Data were analyzed w i t h both Student's t test and analysis
of variance ( A N O V A ) Fisher P L S D test, and values are ex­
pressed as the mean ± S.E.
RESULTS
A n immediate response to cavernous nerve stimulation was
sinusoidal relaxation, evidenced by a slight drop i n the basal
intracavernous pressure and a marked increase i n blood flow
through the internal pudendal artery to a peak of almost six
times the basal flow rate (seven m l . / m i n . ) . The arterial flow
then dropped to a maintenance level of an average of 22.5 m l . /

min. and the intracavernous pressure gradually rose to an
average peak of 140 cm. H 0 w i t h an average latency period of
32.8 sec. After stopping the stimulation, the intracavernous
pressure gradually dropped to baseline after an average of 80.6
sec. (detumescence period).
Venous leakage. I n the presence of small venous leakage
(produced by 25 to 30 G needles), the peak arterial flow i n the
internal pudendal artery was not significantly different from
the control value (table 1). However, the maintenance arterial
flow gradually showed a compensatory increase to a peak of
33.7 m l . / m i n . (control = 22.4 m l . / m i n . ) w i t h the 25G leak and
remained at that level w i t h increasing needle gauge. T h i s was
statistically significant at 95% by both Student's t test and the
Fisher P L S D test (p = 0.01, F = 2.962). This compensatory
increase i n the maintenance blood flow was reflected i n the
changes i n intracavernous pressure: leakage created by needles
up to 25G resulted i n only a slight drop i n pressure from 139.4
cm. H 0 to an average peak of about 110 cm. H 0 (21.4 per
cent) (table 2). A t this point, w i t h the maintenance arterial
blood flow at its peak, a further increase i n the size of the leak
resulted i n a steeper drop i n the peak intracavernous pressure
to about 57 cm. H 0 w i t h the 16G needle (60 per cent reduction
from control).
I n addition to the reduction i n the peak intracavernous
pressure, we also noticed a reduction i n the duration of detu­
mescence from 83.2 sec. i n the control study to 14.6 sec. i n the
presence of 16G leakage (fig. 2).
Reduction of arterial flow. When the blood flow i n the aorta
was reduced by 25 per cent (normal nine m l . / m i n . ) , the first
change noticed on cavernous nerve stimulation was a marked
increase i n the latent period to an average of 42.4 sec. (table 3)
and a further prolongation to 56.8 sec. when the blood flow was
reduced to 50 per cent (fig. 3). The effect on the peak intracav­
ernous pressure was directly related to the percentage of reduc­
t i o n i n the arterial blood flow: 96 cm. H 0 at 25 per cent and
60.6 cm. H 0 at 50 per cent. Interestingly, the duration of

blood flow alone, from an average of 83.2 sec. to 39.7 sec. w i t h
50 per cent reduction.
Venous leakage and reduction of arterial flow. When venous
leakage was combined w i t h reduction i n arterial blood flow, the
erectile response was markedly impaired (table 4). The effect
on the latent period was similar to that induced by the reduction
of arterial flow alone: i t was prolonged by 43 and 63 per cent
w i t h a 25 and 50 per cent reduction, respectively. The changes
i n the peak intracavernous pressure were dramatic. M i n o r
venous leakage alone (created by a 30G needle) had initially
resulted i n a very slight drop (from 139.4 to 123 cm. H 0 ) ;
however, when a 25 per cent reduction of arterial blood flow
was superimposed, the peak intracavernous pressure dropped
to almost 50 per cent of the control (to 69.7 cm. H 0 ) (fig. 4).
When the blood flow was further reduced to 50 per cent of
normal, the same size leakage almost completely abolished the
erectile response (an average peak of only 47.8 cm. H 0 ) . I n
addition, the shortening of the period of detumescence was also
more pronounced. I n the presence of a 30G leak alone, the
duration had decreased from 83.2 sec. i n the control to 73.8
sec, whereas w i t h a 25 and 50 per cent arterial flow reduction,
it was 40 and 24.8 sec, respectively. T h i s decrease i n the
duration of detumescence was enhanced w i t h increasing leak­
age size u n t i l i t reached 10.5 and 5.5 sec. i n the presence of 16G
leakage and 25 and 50 per cent reduction i n arterial flow.

DISCUSSION
The results presented i n this study further confirmed the
role of both the arterial and venous systems i n the hemody­
namics of erection.
When cavernous leakage was created by inserting needles of
different size into the corpus cavernosum, we noticed that the
effect on erection depended not only on the size of the leak but
also on the efficiency of penile arterial blood flow. A l l dogs had
exhibited a good erectile response to control neurostimula­
tion—evidence of healthy sinusoidal smooth muscle. I n these
animals minor venous leakage (30 to 25G) w i t h unimpaired
arterial flow had only a minor effect on the erectile response to
neurostimulation owing to a compensatory increase i n the
maintenance arterial blood flow. However, when the size of the
leakage increased beyond the compensatory capacity of the
arterial flow (22 to 16G), the peak intracavernous pressure
demonstrated a steeper drop to approximately 57 per cent of
the control w i t h the 16G needle. I n contrast to these results (a
noticeable response only to a large leak), a significant decrease
i n the duration of detumescence was seen w i t h even a small
leak. Thus, i n the presence of m i l d to moderate venous leakage,
the increase i n the maintenance flow and the decrease in the
duration of detumescence were the earliest parameters affected.
T h i s is i n agreement w i t h our previous report on patients w i t h
venogenic impotence. I n t h a t study, we found these same
parameters to be the most sensitive on cavernosometry in the
13
V E N O U S I N C O M P E T E N C E , A R T E R I A L I N S U F F I C I E N C Y AND E R E C T I L E F U N C T I O N
diagnosis and quantification of m i l d to moderate venous leak­
age.
This first part of our study might resemble the clinical
situation of venogenic impotence i n young patients w i t h a
normal arterial system. Usually this condition is asymptomatic
unless the leak is very large or arterial insufficiency is super­
imposed, i n which case inability to maintain a prolonged erec­
t i o n is the usual complaint. Similar findings have also been
reported by o t h e r s .
When the arterial blood flow was reduced i n the presence of
normal venous and sinusoidal systems, the decrease i n the
erectile response to neurostimulation was proportional to the
percentage of reduction: the average peak intracavernous pres­
sure dropped by 31 and 63 per cent when the blood flow i n the
aorta was reduced by 25 and 50 per cent respectively. I n
addition, the latent period was markedly prolonged. These
results are similar to our previous findings on the effect of
acute penile artery occlusion and are i n agreement w i t h sev­
eral clinical studies reporting a delayed weak response to i n t r a ­
cavernous injection of vasoactive agents i n patients w i t h arte­
rial disease.
Interestingly, we found t h a t w i t h the reduction
i n arterial blood flow the duration of detumescence was signif­
icantly reduced—by about 34 and 53 per cent w i t h 25 and 50
per cent reduction, respectively. I n other studies i n our labo­
ratory i n which detumescence was characterized as tri-phasic,
the first phase was determined to be dependent mainly on
arterial flow (manuscript i n preparation). Reduction w i l l abol­
ish this phase, and may provide an explanation for our results.
W h e n both venous leakage and arterial insufficiency were
combined, the erectile response was markedly impaired. M i n o r
venous leakage (created by a 30G needle) or a 25 per cent
reduction i n arterial flow alone resulted i n a slight decrease i n
erectile response; when combined, they caused a 49.7 per cent
decrease i n peak intracavernous pressure, close to that induced
by either 16G leakage or a 50 per cent reduction alone.
These findings draw attention to the importance of evaluat­
ing the competence of both the arterial and venous systems
when a vascular origin is suspected.
Two main factors
underlie this recommendation. First, evaluation of one system
alone m i g h t reveal m i l d impairment that would otherwise re­
quire no surgical treatment (especially true i n patients w i t h
mild venous leakage, which usually does not require surgical
intervention). Second, the degree of impairment of each system
w i l l influence the choice of surgical treatment. I f the venous
system alone is impaired, venous ligation would be the appro­
priate procedure; i f arterial insufficiency is the cause, a bal­
loon dilation or arterial revascularization procedure may be
indicated.
I f both systems are impaired, a procedure t h a t
will increase both arterial flow and venous resistance should be
considered: deep dorsal vein a r t e r i a l i z a t i o n
or cavernous
vein arterialization.
From this study, we conclude: 1) both the arterial and venous
systems play an important role i n the hemodynamics of erec­
tion; 2) m i l d impairment of the venous system alone can be
compensated for to some extent by other systems; and 3)
diagnostic evaluation of patients w i t h vasculogenic impotence
should include assessment of both the arterial and venous
systems for proper quantification of the degree of impairment
of each system and better selection of surgical treatment.
Investigation should begin w i t h the arterial system because, i f
adequate, i t has the potential to compensate for minor venous
leakage. Moreover, treatment of minor venous leakage may
not prove beneficial to the patient i f an existing arterial insuf­
ficiency has not been uncovered and treated.
