Updates in penile prosthesis infections [PDF]

Asian Journal of Andrology, 2020
Inflatable penile prostheses are an important tool in the treatment of medically refractory erectile dysfunction. One of the major complications associated with these prostheses is infections, which ultimately require device explanation and placement of a new device.

Multiple Site Fracture of Both Rods in a Malleable Penile Implant

Case Reports in Urology, 2016
Penile prosthesis implant is the definitive treatment for refractory erectile dysfunction. Fracture of malleable prosthesis is rarely described due to its low incidence.

3D Printing a Clinically Available Solution From Plaster‐Based Positives in Superficial Radiation Therapy

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
This study compares two techniques for creating lead shielding masks to replace the current process for superficial/orthovoltage facial radiotherapy: Plaster Cast Positive Mould (PCPM), CT Scanned 3D Print (CT3DP), and Optical Scan 3D Print (OS3DP). CT3DP was found to be more accurate and preferred over OS3DP.

Intraoperative variability between the anteroposterior and posterior condylar axes in primary TKA supports a 20° proximal trochlear entrance design for unrestricted kinematic alignment

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Unrestricted kinematic alignment (uKA) in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) creates a challenge for trochlear design. Femoral implants designed for mechanical alignment (MA) use asymmetrical posterior bone cuts to adjust axial rotation and optimize patellofemoral tracking. In uKA, posterior bone cuts are calipered resections.

Electrophysiological evaluation of alterations in penile sensation due to penile prosthesis implantation in patients with erectile dysfunction

Asian Journal of Urology, 2023
Objective: The present study was aimed to determine the effect of penile prosthesis implantation (PPI) surgery on penile sensation by evaluating the penile electromyography (EMG) variables.

Nonthermal plasma approaches for combating implant‐associated infections: A compendious review

VIEW, EarlyView.
Implant‐associated infections pose serious clinical challenges. Non‐thermal plasma (NTP) modifications overcome this bottleneck in distinct ways relative to traditional sterilization methods. Gas‐phase plasmas generate highly energetic species, UV radiation and reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (RONS), which alter the implant surface properties.

Polyglycolic Acid Polymer Versus Porcine Small Intestine Submucosa Graft After Plaque Incision in Peyronie's Disease: A Comparative Study

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Peyronie's disease (PD) with severe penile curvature often requires surgical correction through plaque incision and grafting (PIG). Objectives To compare surgical outcomes between polyglycolic acid polymer grafts and porcine small intestinal submucosa (SIS) grafts in patients undergoing PIG for PD.

Artificial Intelligence in Patient Education: ChatGPT for Penile Prosthesis Surgery Counseling, a Likert Scale Analysis

Andrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Erectile dysfunction (ED) significantly impacts quality of life. For patients unresponsive to conservative treatments, penile prosthesis implantation represents an effective solution with high satisfaction rates. However, the complexity and sensitive nature of the procedure often generate multiple patient concerns.
