Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To provide the anatomy of the puboprostatic ligament and related structures to save urogenital competence after prostatectomy. MATERIALS AND METHODS:Pelvic areas of 31 adult cadavers were dissected to figure out the shape, number, and location of the puboprostatic ligaments. RESULTS:The puboprostatic ligament was the most important support structure between the pubic bone and prostate gland. Puboprostatic ligaments were bilaterally single (61.3%), bilaterally double (19.4%), or mixed (19.4%). Ligaments were mostly I-shaped (53.8%). If ligaments had extra attachment to or from the arcuate line, the ligaments were λ-shaped (36.3%), or Y-shaped (8.8%). In one case, the ligament had a central fusion with an irregular shape. I-shaped puboprostatic ligaments were observed more frequently in specimens with double ligaments, while λ-shaped puboprostatic ligaments were observed more frequently in the cases with single ligaments. The average distance between both puboprostatic ligaments was 8.1 mm at the pubic site and 14.2 mm at the prostate site. The distance was narrower when the specimen had double puboprostatic ligaments on both sides. The neurovascular bundle ran beneath the puboprostatic ligament. If the ligament was the λ-shaped type, the neurovascular bundle frequently pierced the lateral band of the ligament. CONCLUSION:Puboprostatic ligaments hold and stabilize the prostate against the pubic bone. It is believed that a pelvis with bilateral, double puboprostatic ligaments would have advantages in urogenital competence. The morphologic data of the shape, multiplicity, and location of the PPLs would help to make a plan to approach the prostate.
