TürkçePenile prosthesis
What is a Penile prosthesis?
Penile prosthesis surgery is the process of implants being placed within the penis to treat erectile dysfunctions.
How is Penile prosthesis surgery done?
Two types of implants can be used during the penile prosthesis implantation: the inflatable implants and the semirigid rods. Penile prosthesis surgery is often operated under general anesthesia. During the operation, a cut is done below the top of the penis, the sponge-like tissue within the penis will be extended, and the implant will be placed at the area.
The implant size can be personalized by the body measurements of the patient. Then, the incisions are stitched back together to complete the procedure. The entire operation lasts about an hour.

It takes about a month for the patients to return to their regular daily activities, including sexual activities. It might also take a while to get used to using the implant device.
