ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
To report the amelioration of the three-piece inflatable penile prosthesis (IPP) implantation and the prevention of its complications.METHODS:
Thirty-two patients with moderate to severe erectile dysfunction (ED) irresponsive to conservative treatments received the implantation of the three-piece IPP. The surgical techniques were ameliorated in the course of operation. The patients were guided in using the IPP after operation. The effects and complications of the implantation were observed based on IIEF of the patients before and after operation.RESULTS:
Sexual life was resumed and no complication was found in 28 of the patients. The complications that developed in the other 4 were pump failure (2 cases), urethral perforation (1 case), and penis contraction (1 case). The former 3 achieved normal sexual intercourse after the second operation. Comparison between the IIEF scores before and after operation showed a very remarkable difference (P < 0.01). The occurrence rate of complications was 12.5%. The satisfaction rate of sexual intercourse was 87.5% and the total satisfaction rate of sexual life was 84.4%.CONCLUSION:
The complications of the three-piece IPP implantation were obviously reduced by ameliorating operation techniques. The implantation of the three piece-IPP is safe and effective for advanced ED patients.
