Popis: | Introduction. Within a study evaluating the redesigned AMS 700MS inflatable penile prosthesis (IPP) (American Medical Systems, Minnetonka, MN, USA), one site used new length measurement technique (NLMT), a more aggressive dilation and measurement of the corpora cavernosa on a stretched penis, to address penile shortening. Aim. To compare cylinder size and patient satisfaction, between a NLMT and traditional sizing for IPP implantation. Methods. Fourteen men received IPPs using NLMT, and 55 with traditional sizing. Nationwide sales data from 2005 to 2008 for AMS 700 IPPs was obtained from AMS for comparison; additional surveys captured patient satisfaction. Main Outcome Measure. Demographic data, cylinder sizes, and patient satisfaction were compared between the NLMT and standard techniques. Results. The Fisher's exact test (P 21 cm long and 28.6% (4) received cylinders |
