“…The neophallus consisted of bilateral gracilis muscles as the neo-cavernosa, a right gracilis skin flap as the neourethra, and a lower abdominal flap with an anterior rectus sheath as the skin envelope and neo-tunica albuginea. The function and structure of the neo-phalli were assessed 7 months postoperatively. …”

Elastin loss in tunica media promotes the osteogenic transformation of smooth muscle cells (SMCs) and involves arterial medial calcification (AMC) that is associated with a high incidence of cardiovascular risk in patients with type 2 diabetes. …”

“…Histomorphometric analysis revealed higher amount of collagen but not elastin in BAV-TAA tunica media. CONCLUSIONS: The higher deformability of BAV-TAA tissue supports the hypothesis that increased wall shear stress doesn’t explain the increased risk of sudden onset of rupture and dissection; other mechanisms, likely related to alteration of specific genetic pathways and epigenetic signals, could be investigated to explain differences in aortic dissection and rupture in BAV patients.…”
