To present our experience with the Dynaflex (American Medical Systems) self-contained inflatable penile prosthesis and define specific complication and patient dissatisfaction rates.
From May 1990 through January 1998, 120 men underwent implantation of a Dynaflex prosthesis. The follow-up period ranged from 2 to 80 months (mean 42).
Specific complication rates observed after penile prosthesis implantation were as follows: prosthetic infection, 4.16%; mechanical device failure, 7.5%; and patient dissatisfaction because of inability to work the pump, 16.66%. After intensive teaching, the patient dissatisfaction rate dropped to 0.83%. The overall complication rate was 14.15%.
With several types of penile prostheses available, Dynaflex can be regarded as an appropriate alternative with a relatively low mechanical failure rate. However, careful preoperative assessment and patient education in the use of the pump mechanism are essential to obtain a successful result.
介绍我们使用 Dynaflex（美国医疗系统公司）独立式可充气阴茎假体的经验，并确定特定并发症和患者不满意率。
1990年5月至1998年1月，120名男性接受了 Dynaflex 假体植入。随访期为2至80个月（平均42个月）。
阴茎假体植入后观察到的特定并发症发生率如下：假体感染，4.16%；机械装置故障，7.5%；因无法操作泵导致患者不满意，16.66%。经过强化指导后，患者不满意率降至0.83%。总体并发症发生率为14.15%。
有多种类型的阴茎假体可供选择，Dynaflex 可被视为一种合适的替代方案，其机械故障率相对较低。然而，术前仔细评估和对患者进行泵机制使用方面的教育对于获得成功结果至关重要。
