Abstract

Bladder dysfunction becomes manifest in various ways, and many therapeutic measures may be of value. Organic and psychiatric therapeutic techniques may be used in a sensitive and open approach to sexual dysfunction.

Ultrex cylinders: problems with uncontrolled lengthening (the S-shaped deformity).

PURPOSE: We investigated whether the AMS Ultrex cylinder, developed to provide cylinder lengthening while controlling girth expansion, acted as a tissue expander and, thus, promoted penile lengthening. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Between December 1990 and January 1992, 59 AMS Ultrex prostheses were implanted. Cylinder length corresponded to intracorporeal measurements. The results of lengthening and occurrence of an S-shaped deformity were statistically analyzed. RESULTS: No penile lengthening occurred. In 19 patients (32%) cylinder replacement was required for the S-shaped deformity. CONCLUSIONS: Ultrex cylinders should be downsized and prolonged inflation should be avoided. They should not be implanted in cases of Peyronie's disease, or to replace malleable or self-contained inflatable implants.

Penile tumescence monitoring during morning naps to assess male erectile functioning: an initial study of healthy men of varied ages.

Whether sleep erections occurred during morning naps (preceded by modest sleep deprivation) in healthy men whose ages were representative of clients in sexual health clinics was assessed. Subjects (N = 30) reduced their normal sleep time to increase the likelihood that they would experience rapid eye movement (REM) sleep [closely associated with nocturnal penile tumescence (NPT)]. They then reported to an outpatient psychophysiological laboratory for an early morning nap, during which sleep and penile tumescence measures were recorded continuously. All subjects were able to sleep during at least 1 of their 2 recorded sessions, 24 (80%) experienced REM sleep, and 22 (73%) experienced tumescence episodes consistent with previous NPT studies. The magnitude of these erections could reduce concerns about the presence of organic pathology, and obviate the need for an NPT study. Results suggest that monitoring tumescence during naps may be useful as an inexpensive and convenient screening approach in the assessment of male erectile functioning.
