Corporeal reconstruction procedures for complicated penile implants.

Implantation of a penile prosthesis is now a very much accepted mode of management of organic erectile impotence. In most situations, this operation will involve little or no corporeal reconstruction. However, in the presence of more severe pathologic processes that may lead to corporeal damage, such as infective corporitis secondary to an earlier penile prosthesis or postpriapism fibrosis, and with the increasing public awareness of the availability of therapeutic modalities for impotence, the urologist must be well versed in the diagnostic and surgical techniques of corporeal reconstruction.
