This is a very important study on the anatomy of the dorsal nerves and its branches. The branches emerging from the main trunks perforating the tunica albuginea into cavernous tissue were observed in 72.7% of cases, and in 27.3%, no perforating branches could be identified. These findings should be evaluated clinically in physiologic studies in the future for a better dissection and elevation of the neurovascular bundle (NVB) in reconstructive surgery.
