Penile implant surgery--local experience with the semi-rigid, single component inflatable and the multi-component inflatable penile prostheses.
A retrospective analysis was performed on 26 men who underwent penile implant surgery using semi-rigid, single component inflatable, and multi-component inflatable penile prostheses over a five-year period. No intraoperative complications were encountered in our series. Major complications following discharge from the hospital were encountered in 6 patients (23.1%). After revision surgery, 4 patients (15.4%) eventually required removal of their penile implants. Good sexual satisfaction was noted in 18 patients (69.2%), while another 2 patients (7.7%) reported fair sexual satisfaction. Six patients (23.1%) expressed dissatisfaction with the procedure.
