Material and Methods: A total of 68 organic erectile dysfunction patients treated in our clinic with three-piece inflatable penile implantations between July 1999 and December 2008 were retrospectively evaluated and the adverse events observed with each type of penile prosthesis were recorded. Couples' satisfactions after treatment were evaluated by the modified EDITS (Erectile Dysfunction Inventory of Treatment Satisfaction) questionnaire administered through telephone or face-to-face interviews. Results: The mean age of the patients was 55 ± 10.75 years (range 25-76), and the mean follow-up period was 54.72 ± 35.53 months (range 6-116). Penoscrotal edema/hematoma manageable by conservative methods was observed in 10 (14.7%) cases. Infection was observed in three (4.4%) cases which could be suppressed by antibiotics and did not require removal of the device. Six cases (8.8%) underwent revision surgery because of mechanical device failure in five, and spontaneous urethral prosthesis erosion in one patient. Evaluation of the couples' satisfaction revealed that 89.7% (61/68) of the patients were very/extremely satisfied, 8.8% (6/68) were somewhat satisfied and one patient (1.5%) was not satisfied at all. Partners satisfaction rate of very/extremely satisfied was 92.3% (48/52), and somewhat satisfied was 7.7% (4/52). Conclusion: Three-piece inflatable penile prosthesis implants, with high levels of treatment success and patient and partner satisfaction, are effective and safe options for treatment of organic erectile dysfunction with acceptable complication and revision rates if performed by appropriate patient selection and adequate preoperative information. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: research tables/charts Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
