Supplementary repair close-ups

Inspect an individual repair.

The full movie above repairs the original amputated anatomy. Use these separate detail models to inspect the wall, lumen, and device mechanism.

Teaching order, not a prescribed operative order. These are constructed, direct repairs with matching ends and no modeled tissue loss.

Enlarged sutureMoving thread-path marker

The moving marker traces a thread path; needle handling and knot tying are omitted. Preparation, debridement, clamps, and grafts are not animated here. Skin and fascia are hidden throughout these close-ups; the urethral view also hides surrounding spongiosum. Sutures and wall thickness are enlarged for visibility. The cutaway hides a window or wedge of tissue and its stitches for inspection. An open rendered lumen does not establish perfusion, healing, or clinical patency.

Scope and review status

From anatomy to reconstruction.

One continuous movie follows the original anatomy through amputation, tunical closure, urethral repair, arterial and venous anastomoses, Nerve Tape coaptation, and coverage. The supplementary viewer provides separate detail models for inspection. The storyboard describes the wider reconstructive process. Teaching order does not prescribe operative order.

Other injury patterns

Incomplete injuries retain a tissue bridge and may retain some perfusion. Crush, avulsion, and injuries at other levels change the zone of injury, tissue available for repair, and reconstructive plan. This complete transverse teaching example does not model them.

Questions for anatomical review

  • Confirm the shaft level, tunical contours, and constructed medial septum.
  • Confirm the urethral lumen position and the ventral contour of Buck fascia.
  • Confirm vessel and nerve courses, caliber, and which channels to show as repairable.
  • Review the illustrative wall bites and the case-specific operative sequence.
