Failure of the Jonas Prosthesis
Journal of Urology, 1986A total of 27 patients received the standard Jonas silicone-silver penile prosthesis. The procedure was done at 3 separate hospitals by 2 surgical teams. Four patients who were reported on previously presented consecutively to our clinic with failed penile rigidity and complete multiple wire fractures were found at reoperation. Therefore, the remaining

Mechanical failure of omniphase penile prosthesis
Urology, 1988We report a case of mechanical failure due to cable breakage in both cylinders of an OmniPhase penile prosthesis. The failure occurred six weeks after implantation and was manifested by inability to activate the device. X-ray films showed cable fracture at the point of insertion into the activator mechanism bilaterally.

Mechanical Failure with Malleable Penile Prosthesis
Urology, 2007Mechanical failure with a malleable penile prosthesis is very rare, and no mechanical failure has been reported with the AMS 650 malleable penile prosthesis. A 67-year-old man, using the AMS 650 malleable penile prosthesis without a problem since 1999, presented with right penile deformity and difficulty in sexual intercourse for the preceding 2 months.

Failure Analysis of a Titanium Hip Prosthesis
Journal of Failure Analysis and Prevention, 2020Total hip arthroplasty or total hip replacement (THR) is a surgical procedure for inserting an implant, which aims to restore the functionality of movements lost due to fractures, joint wear, bone loss and other problems. Although the THR procedure is consolidated in medicine, failures in THR implants associated with different problems are frequently ...

Structural valve failure of TTK Chitra heart valve prosthesis
Indian Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2023Mechanical prosthetic valve dysfunction can be structural or non-structural. Structural valve dysfunction includes disc dislodgement, disc fracture, and strut fracture. These events in an implanted valve are rare but could pose a risk to life. TTK Chitra heart valve prosthesis (CHVP), an Indian-made single tilting disc valve, has been implanted since ...
