Reasons for Procedure
A penile prosthesis insertion is for men wanting to obtain an erection, including those who have:
- Not responded to other treatment options (eg, pills, suppositories, vacuum devices, injections)
- Certain diseases (eg, diabetes , vascular disease)
- Physical injuries (eg, spinal cord injury)
- Certain surgeries that have made getting an erection impossible
This procedure has a success rate of about 90%-95% five years after insertion. Most men rate the erection as shorter than their natural one. A penile prosthesis does not change the sensation on the skin of the penis or the ability to reach orgasm or ejaculate.
