Introduction Rodent animal models are currently the most used in vivo model in translational
studies looking into the pathophysiology of erectile dysfunction after nerve-sparing radical …

Introduction With the advance of the “nerve sparing” technique in radical pelvic surgeries,
medically unaided rates of normal erectile function following surgery have improved. Precise …

Understanding and addressing post-radical prostatectomy (RP) erectile dysfunction (ED) is
of paramount importance for clinicians. Cavernous nerve (CN) injury rat model studies have …

Introduction It is common for men to develop erectile dysfunction after radical prostatectomy.
The anatomy of the rat allows the cavernous nerve (CN) to be identified, dissected, and …

OBJECTIVE To develop a rat model of erectile dysfunction (ED) after cavernous nerve injury.
MATERIALS AND METHODS Given the great similarity between the anatomical structure of …

A recent statement from the European-Society-for-Sexual-Medicine has highlighted the
limitations of using the rat model for nerve-sparing prostatectomy. The use of young rats with …

Introduction With the advent of genetically engineered mice, it seems important to develop a
mouse model of cavernous nerve injury (CNI). Aim To establish a mouse model of CNI …

Objective To investigate the early and delayed effects of cavernous nerve electrocautery
injury (CNEI) in a rat model, with the expectation that this model could be used to test …

ABSTRACT Introduction Cavernous nerves (CNs) injury is the main cause of erectile
dysfunction (ED) following radical prostatectomy. Its restoration remains challenging. Aim To …

Background Radical prostatectomy (RP) and radiation treatment are standard options for
localized prostate cancer. Even though nerve‐sparing techniques have been increasingly …
