Does early insertion of a malleable penile prosthesis in ischaemic priapism allow later upsizing of the cylinders?
Insertion of a malleable penile prosthesis is an acceptable option for patients with refractory ischaemic priapism. Although some patients deliberately have a shorter implant inserted initially owing to a previous distal shunt procedure, following a period of resolution the cylinders can be upsized at a later operation.
Mitogenomic results from DNA sequences and unique gene orders corroborate morphology in phylogeny reconstruction and provide a likely scenario for the phylogenetic history of Myctophiformes. The extent of gene order rearrangements found within the mitochondrial genomes of myctophids is unique for phylogenetic purposes.
