Sexual function in prostatectomized persons. Lissmann (Münch. med. Woch., 1928, No. 9)
Lissmann, after encountering in practice the question about preservation of sexual ability during prostatectomy and not finding an answer to it in the relevant literature, addressed a questionnaire on the subject to 220 urologists and surgeons in Europe and America. After processing the 100 responses, he came to the following conclusions: 1) Libido and functio erigendi are probably not affected by the so-called transmucosal prostatectomy and may even occasionally increase and, if they subside, reappear. 2) The preservation of the potentia generandi depends on the extent to which the genital parts of the posterior urethra are spared during the operation, which is undoubtedly possible. 3) Ejaculation may be destroyed by the operation.
