Abstract
The nerves of the corpora cavernosa have anatomical characteristics different from other nerves. The intracavernous nerves are located in fibrous tunnels into which numerous fibrous bundles establish attachments. These bundles are part of the fibrous meshwork included in the corpora cavernosa.We suspect that during erection, when the corpora fill with blood and high intracavernous pressure develops, the aforementioned meshwork of fibrous bundles attached to all fibrous elements of the corpora, including the tunica albuginea and the perineural fibrous tunnels, stretches and prevents compression of the intracavernous nerves.
