Impending erosion is an unusual complication of inflatable penile prosthesis that can strongly impact on patient's morbidity and quality of life. In this case report we present a salvage surgery technique for impending erosion performed in a 57-year-old man.
We present our surgical technique for cylinder reimplantation in an impending erosion of a three-component inflatable prosthesis with a peno-scrotal access and extracapsular reseating of the cylinder.
No post-operative complication occurred, and the patient regained full function of the prosthesis after recovery. The surgical site healed well with no signs of infections.
Impending erosion is a problematic complication of penile prosthesis; however, can be administered with a salvage technique avoiding the explant of the IPP.
即将发生的侵蚀是可膨胀阴茎假体的一种罕见并发症,会对患者的发病率和生活质量产生重大影响。在本病例报告中,我们介绍了一种针对一名57岁男性即将发生的侵蚀所实施的挽救手术技术。
我们展示了在通过阴茎阴囊入路对三件式可膨胀假体即将发生的侵蚀进行圆柱体重新植入并在囊外重新安置圆柱体的手术技术。
未发生术后并发症,患者康复后假体恢复了全部功能。手术部位愈合良好,无感染迹象。
即将发生的侵蚀是阴茎假体的一个棘手并发症;然而,可以采用挽救技术进行处理,避免取出阴茎假体植入物(IPP)。
