published December 2005
Abstract | Full Text | Journal Format-PDF (256Kb)
Video Clip 1. Division of layers of Denonvilliers' fascia and development of posterior plane between prostate and rectum. At end of dissection, prostatic pedicle and prostatic fascia are clearly demonstrated on left.(10,559 KB)
