title: Experience with the Small-Carrion penile prosthesis.
abstract: The Small-Carrion prosthesis has been implanted successfully in 14 of 15 patients. These prostheses are implanted through a dorsal midline penile incision which simplifies the procedure. The perineal approach is preferred for keloid formers and paraplegics who will use a condom catheter. Operative failure may be decreased by paying particular attention to the size of prosthesis implanted and the positioning of its distal tip.
