Corpus cavernosum pressure in man during erection has not been measured previously with a noninvasive technique. Using such a technique it has been shown that during erection in young men intracavernosal pressure has peaks of at least ten times higher than the systemic systolic pressure. These findings indicate that during erection the intracavernosal circulation is contained, at least partially, within a closed system, separated from the general circulation. Also erection cannot be the result of circulatory function only.
此前尚未使用非侵入性技术测量过男性勃起时海绵体压力。使用这种技术已表明，在年轻男性勃起期间，海绵体内压力峰值至少比体循环收缩压高十倍。这些发现表明，在勃起过程中，海绵体内循环至少部分包含在一个与体循环分离的封闭系统内。而且勃起不可能仅是循环功能的结果。
