Abstract

Dynamic infusion cavernosometry and cavernosography (DICC) were performed in 22 patients who were referred with symptoms of partial erection and transient erection and who were diagnosed as deep dorsal venous leakage by means of colour Doppler ultrasonography. We reached the diagnostic values for corporovenous leakage (CVL), also classified them and showed the veins that need to be ligated. With these advantages, DICC is a very cost-effective and safe technique that can be performed routinely in the diagnosis of corporovenous leakage. © 1995 Akadémiai Kiadó.
