Title: [Comparative assessment of the results of ultrasonic measurements of postocclusive alterations in the brachial and cavernous arteries].
Abstract:We compared the results of functional endothelial tests of the cavernous penile arteries by the modified by us method with results of the study of endothelial function of the brachial artery. The anal...We compared the results of functional endothelial tests of the cavernous penile arteries by the modified by us method with results of the study of endothelial function of the brachial artery. The analysis of the results of examination of 116 patients with endothelial dysfunction of various genesis and 14 men free of endothelial dysfunction has not found a correlation between the tests, but all the patients with postocclusive increase in the diameter of the cavernous artery by less than 50% indicating arteriogenic endothelial dysfunction had signs of endothelial dysfunctions in the study of brachial artery. This suggests the presence of systemic endothelial dysfunction in all the examinees with arteriogenic endothelial dysfunction supporting its role in pathogenesis of this form of endothelial dysfunction.Read More
