Inflatable Penile Prosthesis

A Permanent Solution for Erectile Dysfunction

For men who have erectile dysfunction (ED) and who have not had success with medications or less invasive treatments, Dr. Horovitz offers the Inflatable Penile Prosthesis as an effective and long-term solution. This surgically implanted device allows men to regain control over their sexual function by providing reliable, on-demand erections. As a leading expert in urological surgeries, Dr. Horovitz brings years of experience in helping men achieve positive results through this procedure.

What is an Inflatable Penile Prosthesis?

The Inflatable Penile Prosthesis consists of three main components:

• Two inflatable cylinders were implanted inside the penis.

• A pump was placed in the scrotum.

• A fluid reservoir is implanted in the lower abdomen.

When activated by squeezing the pump in the scrotum, fluid from the reservoir flows into the cylinders, creating a firm erection. After intercourse, the fluid can be returned to the reservoir by pressing a release valve, returning the penis to its flaccid state.

Ideal Candidates for Inflatable Penile Prosthesis

Dr. Horovitz may recommend an Inflatable Penile Prosthesis for men who:

• Have severe erectile dysfunction that does not respond to medications like Viagra or Cialis.

• Desire a permanent solution to ED that allows for spontaneous sexual activity.

• I prefer a discreet and reliable method to achieve an erection when needed.

Procedure Overview

1. Surgical Implantation: The surgery, typically performed under general or spinal anesthesia, involves placing the cylinders in the penis, the pump in the scrotum, and the reservoir in the abdomen. It usually takes about 1 to 2 hours.

2. Recovery: Most patients can return home the day after surgery. Full recovery usually takes 4 to 6 weeks, after which the device is activated and ready for use.

Benefits of an Inflatable Penile Prosthesis
