ABSTRACT

The outer longitudinal lamina attenuates in the ventral midline. At the area of the periurethral ridges, the tunica albuginea is quite thick. However, in the midline of the ventrum, the midline septal fibers interweave with the inner circular lamina, and, at that location, it is the only lamina. This fact of the architecture is felt to be one of the entities that could explain why most Peyronie’s disease is associated with dorsal curvature and dorsal plaques.
