Small-Carrion penile prosthesis. A new implant for management of impotence.
More than 75 patients have had excellent results using a new penile implant which consists of a silicone exterior with a silicone sponge interior. The prostheses are inserted into the corpora cavermosa; they feel and look like a normal erect penis. The prostheses are available in several lengths and two diameters, and the proper size is selected for each patient at the time of surgery. Complications have been minimal.
