Recurrent Inguinal Hernia and Reservoir Migration after Three-Piece Penile Prosthesis Implantation
Journal Title: Journal of Clinical and Analytical Medicine - Year 2011, Vol 2, Issue 3
Abstract
A healthy 60 years-old man was operated for bilateral inguinal hernia a year before implementation of penile prosthesis implantation. Three months after PPI, inguinal hernia recurrence occurred on left side in which reservoir of penile prosthesis was placed. Reservoir was both herniated and migrated. Although there are lots of complications due to penile prosthesis implantation, recurrent inguinal hernia is a rare complication in reservoir area. Surgeon must examine the inguinal region carefully before PPI operation. If there is a herniation, general surgeons should perform tension-free herniography. As a result of place and pressure of reservoir of penile prosthesis, weakness of wall might increase the likelihood of recurrence.
