PURPOSE To present the surgical technique of ventral phalloplasty as an adjunct procedure to the classic prosthetic surgery. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this video we demonstrate how to perform a ventral phalloplasty in a patient that has undergone a penile prosthesis implantation. Our technique consists of: delineation of the penile scrotal web, excision of this redundant skin, and re-approxima...

We examined the role of Sema3D, a semaphorin of previously unknown function, in guiding retinal ganglion cell (RGC) axons to the optic tectum in the developing zebrafish. Sema3D is expressed more strongly in the ventral versus dorsal tectum, suggesting that it may participate in guiding RGC axons along the dorsoventral axis of the tectum. Ubiquitous misexpression of Sema3D in transgenic zebrafi...

introduction: to recognize the myelinated nerve fibers of the external capsule in human brain. materials and methods: 10 adult and normal brains (20 hemispheres) from both sexes were studied using 15 mm serial sections in all three cardinal planes after fixation and processing. these sections were stained by klüver - barrera and heidenhain - woelcke methods. results: some fibers from different ...
