Corporoplasty using bovine pericardium grafts in complex penile prosthesis implantation surgery.
PURPOSE This paper is the first, to our knowledge, to propose the use of a bovine pericardium graft in corporoplasty for penile prosthesis implantation. The advantages of bovine pericardium graft have been demonstrated by its use in cardiac surgery, including low cost, biocompatibility, impermeability, resistance to dilatation, flexibility, low likelihood of retraction, absence of antigenic rea...
متن کاملMorphological observations of mineralizing pericardium cardiac grafts.
Pericardial patch grafts were implanted in the hearts of young sheep for periods ranging from two to 120 days. Explants seven to 21 days old revealed the formation of a "pseudoneointima" (PNI) on the blood contacting surface of the pericardium. The PNI was more heavily mineralized than the pericardium. Mineralization was most intense on the blood contacting surface of the PNI and on the chamber...
متن کاملGuidelines for sizing pericardium for aortic valve leaflet grafts.
Surgical repair of the aortic valve with the use of leaflet grafts made from pericardium has been shown to be a viable option, particularly in children, in whom valve replacement has strong disadvantages. We present guidelines for sizing treated autologous pericardium to fabricate a leaflet graft for single-leaflet replacement. Both our clinical experience and experimental evidence indicate tha...
متن کاملBovine pericardium in penile prosthesis reimplantation.
We present a case of a patient who underwent a late penile prosthesis implant using bovine pericardium as a complement to the tunica albuginea involved in intense fibrosis that destroyed the corpus cavernosum after an infectious manifestation. The advantages of using bovine pericardium in the substitution of the tunica albuginea are discussed and its first use as a penile prosthesis lining is r...
متن کاملComparison between the decellularized bovine pericardium and the conventional bovine pericardium used in the manufacture of cardiac bioprostheses
Introduction: In this paper, our objective was to compare the decellularized and conventional pericardium mechanical resistance and also its capability of inducing inflammatory response in an animal experimental model. Methods: In order to study these properties, we divided the pericardia into two groups: Group I pericardium conventionally treated with GTA and Group II – pericardium previously ...
