Penile Implants and Prostheses in 

Dubai at DRHC Andrology Clinic

Comprehensive Overview:

Penile implants, also known as penile prostheses, are devices implanted into the penis to treat erectile dysfunction (ED) that does not respond to other treatments. They can provide a reliable and long-lasting solution for men with severe ED. Here's a detailed overview of penile implants, including types, procedure, recovery, and more

Types of Penile Implants:

  • Inflatable Penile Implants (IPPs): These implants consist of two inflatable cylinders placed in the penis, a fluid reservoir placed in the abdomen, and a pump placed in the scrotum. When the pump is squeezed, the cylinders fill with fluid, creating an erection. 
  • Malleable Penile Implants: These implants consist of bendable rods placed in the penis. They can be bent into an erect position for sexual activity and bent back down when not in use. 

Procedure:

  1. Preparation: Before the surgery, you will undergo a thorough evaluation, including a physical exam and tests to assess your overall health and suitability for the procedure.
  2. Anesthesia: Penile implant surgery is typically performed under general anesthesia or spinal anesthesia to ensure you are comfortable and pain-free during the procedure.
  3. Implant Placement: The surgeon will make an incision in the penis or scrotum.
  4. Closure: Once the implant is in place, the incisions are closed with sutures, and a dressing may be applied to the surgical site.

Recovery:

  1. Hospital Stay: The procedure typically does not require an overnight hospital stay; it can be done as an outpatient procedure.
  2. Pain Management: You may experience some pain or discomfort after surgery which is controllable by medications.
  3. Activity Restrictions: You may be advised to avoid sexual activity and strenuous activities for a few weeks to allow for proper healing.
  4. Follow-Up: Regular follow-up appointments with your healthcare provider are important to monitor your recovery and ensure the implant is functioning properly.

Risks and Complications:

  • Infection: There is a risk of infection with any surgery. Antibiotics may be prescribed to reduce this risk.
  • Implant Malfunction: While rare, implants can break or malfunction over time, requiring additional surgery to repair or replace the implant.
  • Changes in Sensation: Some men may experience changes in sensation or numbness in the penis after surgery.
  • Other Risks: Other potential risks include bleeding, scarring, and dissatisfaction with the results.

Conclusion:

Penile implants are a safe and effective treatment option for men with severe ED who do not respond to other treatments. They can restore sexual function and improve quality of life. However, it's important to discuss the risks, benefits, and alternatives with your healthcare provider to determine if a penile implant is right for you.
