What are penile implants?

Penile prosthesis implantation represents the ultimate option for the treatment of end-stage erectile dysfunction (ED). Originally developed in the 1970’s, and refined in the following decades, penile implants now represent a durable and safe solution for men when all conservative treatment options have failed or are contraindicated. Modern prostheses have a high mechanical reliability, are associated with low infection rates which translates into high patient satisfaction. The satisfaction rates are higher than any other treatment modality.
