title: [Unilateral intracavernous phalloprosthetics of erectile dysfunction].
abstract: 258 patients with erectile dysfunction have undergone incomplete intracavernous phalloprosthetic operation (ICFPO) to maximally preserve unaffected cavernous tissue. Indications for this procedure are formulated. Adequate axial stability of the phallus after ICFPO was ensured by improved design of the monolithic polyethylene rod. Changes were also made in the operative technique of ICFPO to reduce the scope of surgical intervention and operative trauma. Outcomes of the surgery and results of postoperative examinations showed ICFPO to promote recovery or improvement of erection in most of the patients. Minimal traumatism, functional effectiveness and outpatient setting say in favor of this method for surgical treatment of some forms of erectile dysfunction.
