Penile corporoplasty with polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) grafts. Academic Article uri icon

Overview

abstract

  • Ten male dogs underwent segmental excision of tunica albuginea of corpus cavernosum penis and replacement with polytetrafluoroethylene grafts. None of the dogs exhibited acute or chronic adverse reaction to the graft. These findings suggest that PTFE may have a role in human reconstructive phalloplasty.
