Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Six cases of cylinder problems encountered in 1986 with the AMS 700 Silastic inflatable penile prosthesis (IPP) were studied in detail. The problems included 1 case of significant penile bending, the development of a cylinder tear, and several cylinder aneurysms. Possible causes of the problems are explored, along with possibilities for prevention of future problems.
