title: OmniPhase penile prosthesis: delayed bilateral central cable breakage.
abstract: The OmniPhase* penile prosthesis is a new mechanically activated penile implant. The prosthesis can be alternatively flaccid and rigid depending on the tension of a supporting central cable. We report a case of delayed bilateral central cable breakage with subsequent loss of penile rigidity.
