Background: There is little information about when and how cavernosal sinusoidal endothelia develop in the external genitalia of fetuses.
Methods: We examined histological sections of erectile tissue in 37 human fetuses (25 males and 12 females) whose gestational age (GA) ranged from 8 to 40 weeks.
Results: The sinusoidal lumen was filled with blood in the glans of the penis and clitoris at a GA of 10 to 11 weeks, and in the corpus spongiosum at a GA of 15 to 16 weeks.

Objective: Urinary continence after radical prostatectomy is a crucial aspect of patient quality of life. The aim of this study was to identify the factors influencing urinary continence after robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy, focusing on the role of anterior reconstruction.
Methods: We collected clinical data from 375 patients at a single institution.
Objective: To engineer an acellular mesh to reconstruct the urethra to replace the current surgical practice of using autologous tissue grafts. Cell based approaches have shown progress. However, these have been associated with high costs and logistical challenges.
