title: Corpus cavernosography.
abstract: The cavernous spaces of the penis can be demonstrated by injecting 20 cm3 contrast agent (Urografin 60%) dorsolaterally behind the gland penis. By injecting the contrast agent into one corpus cavernosum, both corpora become visible by X-ray. Pathologic conditions (trauma, Peyronie's disease, priapism, malignancy, etc.) cause typical changes in the cavernous spaces and blood drainage. The literature has been reviewed.
