During the last 4 years, 12 patients had an implantation of the AMS Ultrex2 penile prosthesis : 4 of these patients were impotent after a cystoprostatectomy, 4 patients had vascular insufficiency, 2 patients had psychogenic impotency, one patient was diabetic and one patient had a spinal cord injury. The complication rate was low (16%): one patient necessitated a surgical revision of the prosthesis after disconnection of the tubulure. A second patient had a urethral stenosis treated by dilation.
