Abstract
Recent advances in the functional anatomy, neurophysiology and pharmacology of penile erection have fostered a dramatic improvement in the understanding of the physiology of erection and the approaches to correct impotence. However, the complex mechanism of human erection still remains incompletely explained. In vivo animal studies in the Chacma baboon (Dormehl et al., 1984) suggested that an enhanced platelet activity exits in the penis during erection. In this study we evaluate whether a similar accumulation of platelets during erection also occurs in humans.KeywordsSingle Photon Emission Computerize TomographyErectile DysfunctionCorpus CavernosumPenile ErectionAutologous PlateletThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors.
