Penile prosthesis implantation process

In addition to the breast prostheses we know, there are actually genital prostheses. According to common clinical medical procedures, genital prosthesis insertion is now a very safe surgical treatment. Even the elderly can undergo this surgical treatment. So, what is the process of genital prosthesis insertion?

1. How is the male genital prosthesis inserted?

1. The male genitals are composed of two cavernous bodies between the bones and a urethral sponge of the inner abdominal internal oblique muscle. The front end of the male genitals is sharp and inserted into the spherical surface of the glans penis. The rear end is the cavernous horn of the male genitals. It is fixed on the left and right toe bones, covered with the sciatic nerve penis cavernous body muscle, and embedded in the male genital prosthesis.

2. Male genital prosthesis insertion, also known as male genital support point insertion, is to insert the male genital prosthesis or support point into the cavernous body of the penis to replace the cavernous body to expand, harden, and support the male genitals, so that patients can restore their sexual life and cure erectile dysfunction. At this stage, the types of prostheses are semi-rigid prostheses, two-piece prostheses, and expandable three-piece prostheses. A large number of clinical medical applications are three-piece prostheses.

2. The operation steps of male genital prosthesis surgery

1. Choose a suitable prosthesis.

2. Understand whether the corpora cavernosa on both sides are the same, whether there is penile induration, inflammation and congenital malformation, and perform honeycomb angiography if necessary.

3. Antibiotics should be used 1 day before surgery and 3 days after surgery to prevent Gram-positive bacteria infection.

4. Before and after surgery, clean the patient with strong iodine for 10 minutes.

5. Prepare the skin before surgery.

6. Prepare special tools in advance to disinfect the embedded prosthesis.

7. Insertion of male genital prosthesis and surgical treatment.

3. Advantages of male genital prosthesis insertion

1. IPP (inflatable genital prosthesis) is very easy to hide under clothes and pants, including swimsuits or jeans.

2. Ability to maintain an erection, if necessary, without causing any potential ED symptoms.

3. Men who undergo implant surgery have improved psychological and mental health. Some studies have shown that patient satisfaction is high, partly due to technical improvements in the implant itself, technical improvements in surgical treatment, pain relief from surgery, and patient expectations for more effectiveness.

4. The inflation of machinery and equipment can be carried out cautiously.

According to the content of the article, we know that male genital prosthesis surgery is a minimally invasive surgery, combined with internationally excellent optical microscope technology, which can further improve the surgical treatment rate and bring a lot of benefits to a large number of ED patients. When patients accept surgical treatment, they must choose a regular hospital for surgical treatment.
