2
Bladder injury during inflatable penileprosthesis implantation is a rare complication.
3
Results: Thirty-nine consecutive patients underwent 55 revision procedures related to a prior penileprosthesis.
4
We describe a case where the inflatable penileprosthesis reservoir was implanted into the urinary bladder.
5
Device efficacy and patient satisfaction with penileprosthesis revision surgery will be assessed using psychometrically validated instruments.
6
Introduction: Complications that arise after placement of a penileprosthesis may result in the need for revision surgery.
7
Aim: To determine the overall success of penileprosthesis revision surgery in providing the patient with a functional implant.
8
Few contemporary penileprosthesis series have focused solely on describing the efficacy and patient satisfaction associated with penileprosthesis revision surgery.
9
Those patients with Peyronie's disease and erectile impairment due to cavernous fibrosis are best treated by the insertion of a penileprosthesis.
10
Conclusions: An inflatable penileprosthesis is highly recommended as an initial procedure, especially in patients with the dual problems of ED and incontinence.
11
Methods: Data were derived from a prospective database of consecutive patients undergoing penileprosthesis revision surgery performed by a single surgeon (B.R.K.).
12
Thirteen patients out of the total of 18 (72.2%) had their incontinence controlled by an inflating penileprosthesis.
13
Conclusions: Penileprosthesis revision surgery is highly successful in providing men with a functional implant.
