The Suspensory Ligament of the Clitoris: A New Anatomical and Histological Description.
Botter C, Botter M, Pizza C, Charpy C, Pineau V, La Padula S, Meningaud JP, Hersant B. Botter C, et al. J Sex Med. 2022 Jan;19(1):12-20. doi: 10.1016/j.jsxm.2021.10.002. Epub 2021 Nov 18. J Sex Med. 2022. PMID: 34802957
The deep component is shorter and extends from the pubic symphysis to the knee of the clitoris and also connects the two crus to the pubic symphysis. It almost exclusively consists of very well organized collagen fibers. CONCLUSION: The suspensory ligament of the …

Innervation pattern and fiber counts of the human dorsal nerve of clitoris.
Tunçkol E, Heim C, Brunk I, Vida I, Brecht M. Tunçkol E, et al. Sci Rep. 2024 Oct 4;14(1):23060. doi: 10.1038/s41598-024-72898-8. Sci Rep. 2024. PMID: 39367034 Free PMC article.
We find the clitoral branch of pudendal nerve that innervates the clitoris not as single nerve, but as number of loose bundles. In the crus of the clitoris, about 12 such bundles can be recognized while about 32 bundles are present in the clitoral hemi-body. …

Locally aggressive granular cell tumor causing priapism of the crus of the clitoris. A light and ultrastructural study, with observations concerning the pathogenesis of fibrosis of the corpus cavernosum in priapism.
Slavin RE, Christie JD, Swedo J, Powell LC Jr. Slavin RE, et al. Am J Surg Pathol. 1986 Jul;10(7):497-507. doi: 10.1097/00000478-198607000-00007. Am J Surg Pathol. 1986. PMID: 3014914
A case of focal priapism of the clitoris caused by a microscopic granular cell tumor (GCT) is described. This neoplasm is considered locally aggressive because it invades the lumens of peripheral cavernous sinuses of the crus of the clitoris. ...A peculiar la …

Evaluation of autonomic innervation of the clitoris and bulb.
Yilmaz U, Kromm BG, Yang CC. Yilmaz U, et al. J Urol. 2004 Nov;172(5 Pt 1):1930-4; discussion 1934. doi: 10.1097/01.ju.0000140760.79893.f1. J Urol. 2004. PMID: 15540758
We simultaneously measured evoked activity in the clitoris and bulb, and hand sympathetic skin responses (SSRs). RESULTS: Spontaneous electrical activity of the clitoris and bulb was present in 13 subjects. A total of 21 subjects had evoked activity in the bulb, whi …

Neural supply to the clitoris: immunohistochemical study with three-dimensional reconstruction of cavernous nerve, spongious nerve, and dorsal clitoris nerve in human fetus.
Moszkowicz D, Alsaid B, Bessede T, Zaitouna M, Penna C, Benoit G, Peschaud F. Moszkowicz D, et al. J Sex Med. 2011 Apr;8(4):1112-22. doi: 10.1111/j.1743-6109.2010.02182.x. Epub 2011 Jan 26. J Sex Med. 2011. PMID: 21269395
The CN runs along the lateral surface of the vagina and urethra and penetrates the homolateral clitoral crus. The CN provides adrenergic, cholinergic, and nitrergic innervation to the clitoris, but not sensory innervation. The spongious nerve (SN) is the terminal an …

Distal vaginal atresia: a report of a rare type found a late-term fetus and its histological comparison with the normal pelvis.
Kim JH, Jin ZW, Abe H, Murakami G, Rodríguez-Vázquez JF, Hinata N. Kim JH, et al. Anat Cell Biol. 2022 Dec 31;55(4):475-482. doi: 10.5115/acb.22.082. Epub 2022 Sep 8. Anat Cell Biol. 2022. PMID: 36071545 Free PMC article.
However, the external orifice of the urethra consisted of a highly folded duct with hypertrophied squamous epithelium. Notably, the corpus cavernosum and crus of the clitoris had poor development and were embedded in the subcutaneous tissue, distant from the vestibu …

Minimally-compressive, three- and four-dimensional ultrasound imaging of the clitoris: a feasibility study.
Deng J, Crouch NS, Creighton SM, Linney AD, Todd-Pokropek A, Rodeck CH. Deng J, et al. Ultrasound Med Biol. 2006 Oct;32(10):1479-84. doi: 10.1016/j.ultrasmedbio.2006.06.006. Ultrasound Med Biol. 2006. PMID: 17045867
The transducer was positioned in front of and about 3 cm away from the clitoris, with a gel pad or water pad being placed in between. The pads allowed the delicate structures to be imaged without noticeable deformation. ...The imaging volume was big enough to cover the cli …
