( J . UroL, 144: 790-793, 1990)) 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. 1 2 %4 5,6 7 133 8 9 1 0 - 1 2 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 . ) . Through a midline incision from the xiphoid process to the pubic bone, the abdomen was opened and the bladder and F i G . l . Schematic drawing of experimental set-up. prostate were exposed. By electrostimulation, the cavernous nerves were identified along the posterolateral aspect of the prostate, and bipolar cuff electrodes (Avery Laboratory) were placed around them to induce erection (fig. 1).

Effect of reduction of arterial flow on duration of latent 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 . / 792 A B O S E I F AND ASSOCIATES 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.

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.

Effect of cavernous leakage and reduction of arterial flow on peak intracavernous pressure. 5. Venous leakage* 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. 14,15 16 17-19 20 2 3 24 25 26-27 22,28,29 30 19 REFERENCES 1.
