Can Ambicor® Penile Prosthesis be Used in One Piece in Patients with Inadequate Cavernous Structure? Our Experience of Two Cases

Journal Title: JOURNAL OF UROLOGICAL SURGERY - Year 2016, Vol 3, Issue 4

Abstract

Penile prosthesis implantation, which is practiced with high satisfaction and success rates in patients with erectile dysfunction today, is an invasive procedure carried out by implanting various models of the prostheses into the cavernosal tissue. Penile prosthesis implantation may sometimes prove difficult in cases with small penis in size and diameter. In this article, we present the method we used in two patients in whom two-pieces Ambicor® penile prosthesis implantation was planned but could not be carried out due to the insufficient size and diameter of the penile cavernous structures.
