Penile curvatures and aneurysmal defects with the Ultrex penile prosthesis corrected with insertion of the AMS700CX.
OBJECTIVE
We reviewed our series of patients with an AMS700 Ultrex penile prosthesis whose erectile deformities were corrected by replacement with AMS700CX cylinders.


METHODS
Ultrex cylinders were replaced by AMS700CX cylinders in 7 men with erectile deformities.


RESULTS
Deformities were corrected successfully in all 7 patients. The penis is completely straight in 6 patients, while a mild 30-degree ventral curvature is present in 1.


CONCLUSIONS
Erectile deformities with the AMS700 Ultrex penile prosthesis can be repaired successfully by replacement with the AMS700CX cylinders.
