Three-Piece Inflatable Penile Prosthesis Implantation for the Treatment of Severe Erectile Dysfunction Following a Complex Pelvic Fracture: A Case Report.

Pelvic fracture is one of the common causes of erectile dysfunction (ED). The pathophysiology of ED following pelvic injury is quite complicated and comprises vascular, neurogenic, corporal, as well as psychogenic causes. Penile prosthesis implantation is the third-line treatment of ED due to any reason including pelvic trauma that poorly responds to other standard treatments. In this study, we reported a case of a 33-year-old man with severe erectile dysfunction and urethral stricture following a complex pelvic fracture due to a traffic accident who was successfully implanted with a three-piece inflatable penile prosthesis at People's Hospital 115. At the sixth month of follow-up, this device has been working effectively, the patient had the ability to attain full erection for sexual intercourse. Both the patient and the partner are satisfied with their sexual lives. ED is a long-term consequence of pelvic fracture. The high proportion of young patients with a demand for erection rehabilitation and complex pathophysiology make the treatments even more challenging. Penile implant surgery is a potential treatment for refractory ED patients suffering from pelvic trauma.
