Anatomic Study of the Clitoris and the Bulbo-clitoral Organ

One study showed that only one in seven medical schools in the Chicago area completely described the clitoris as part of their curriculum (Coldispoti, 2023).Before reading this book, ask yourself, "Do I really think it is important to be able to examine and understand the female anatomy as part of what I do?"If the answer is "Yes," then this book is the best I have found for understanding the clitoral anatomy. If you take care of people who have a clitoris, own a clitoris, or sleep with someone who owns a clitoris, then I think you should spend time with this book.1. Codispoti N, Negris O, Myers MC, et al.

Di Marino and Lepidi examined the clitoris and bulbo-clitoral organ of over 20 cadavers and photographed the results. Their text and photographs clearly indicate (although they do not make the claim since they are too polite) that every current medical atlas requires substantial revision in demonstrating a realistic drawing of the female sexual anatomy. All of the major atlases are clearly mistaken. A medical student, surgeon wanting to avoid disrupting important structures, or anyone who wants to better understand this subject needs this book. Whereas the latest Grant's Atlas of Anatomy, Netter Atlas of Human Anatomy, Gray's Atlas of Anatomy, all depict the female clitoris appearing as it was a chicken drum stick, the actual photographs show nothing of the sort. Major books on sexuality such as the Science of Orgasm by Komisuruk erroneously demonstrate the innervation of clitoris, vestibular bulbs and corpus spongiosum. This marvelous textbook, therefore, becomes the standard text of understanding female sexuality. It is a must of anyone attempting to understand the subject.

The information found in this book is not readily available elsewhere. The text, diagrams and photos thoroughly investigate the internal and external structures in a clear, scientific way. Interest in the topic of female sexual anatomy has been growing in recent years and this book adds to the information base.
