Replacement of tunica albuginea of corpus cavernosum penis using human dura. Experimental study on dogs

The tunica albuginea of corpus cavernosum penis was excised and replaced with human dura in experiments on 11 dogs. The surface of the implant epithelialized within three weeks, and later the implant was replaced by autologous tissue with no scarring and shrinkage. After resection of placques in Peyronie's disease the tunica albuginea can be replaced with specially treated human dura.
