In this study we compare two different techniques of performing the dorsal penile nerve block (DPNB): the technique according to Dalens, and a modification, where a small amount of the local anesthetic for the dorsal penile nerve block (DPNB) is withheld, and then injected subcutaneously at the ventral transition between the penis and the scrotum in the midline. The latter injection at the site of perineal innervation is a relic of the penile ring wall infiltration, which surely blocks all skin fibres of both the dorsal penile nerve and the perineal nerve.
