Abstract

Sixty eight impotent men underwent corpora cavernosography and corpora cavernosal pressure measurements during saline infusion. Nineteen of the men had internal pudendal arteriograms. Correlation between the cavernosograms and saline infusion induced pressure measurements was "good" in 56/66(84%), "approximate" in 5/66(8%) and there was no correlation in 5/66(8%). Two patients were excluded for technical reasons. The spread of results and the good correlation of the two tests speaks for the accuracy of the method. It was of value in diagnosis and will be of paramount importance if veno occlusive surgery becomes a reliable method of treatment.
