  • Description: Introduction: Detailed knowledge on the architecture of the corpus spongiosum is necessary for tissue engineering, but lacking. Methods: Two penises of male cadavers, who donated their bodies for research purposes, were dissected and frozen; one in flaccid state, the other artificially erected. Tissue sections in transverse and frontal (longitudinal) direction were obtained, stained and digitalized. Surfaces, shape and tissue density were measured and compared. Also, a digital and a stereolithografic 3D-reconstruction were made. Results: Area percentages of vascular sinuses in both directions indicated an increase with erection of 127% transversally and 140% frontally. The structure of the transverse sections was similar at all section sites, but the glans penis had a higher tissue density. Vascular spaces were larger in frontal sections, with more incomplete septae. 3D-models confirmed these findings. Conclusion: This study provides novel information on the architecture of the corpus spongiosum that is important in tissue engineering.
