Implantation of inflatable penile prosthesis should be considered as a definitive treatment of erectile dysfunction. However, the sole procedure might not allow for optimal dimensional and functional outcomes. The aim of this study was to systematically review the literature and present the findings on the optimal choice of perioperative methods, surgical techniques, and pharmacotherapy to improve penile length, curvature, and erectile function.

Background: Inflatable penile prosthesis (IPP) insertion is recommended for the treatment of patients with Peyronie's disease (PD) and significant erectile dysfunction (ED); adjunctive procedures can be used for residual curvature after IPP placement.

Aim: To assess the management of penile curvature correction in PD patients undergoing IPP procedures within a large multinational, multicenter cohort.

Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on PD patients treated with IPP by 11 experienced prosthetic surgeons.

Penile prosthesis implantation is considered a last-resort treatment for erectile dysfunction, used when pharmacological and other conservative treatments are inadequate or at the patient's request. The well-documented complications of penile prostheses include pain, infection, mechanical failure, improper positioning, and erosion. In this case, we report a patient presenting with penile skin necrosis, despite the absence of typical risk factors such as diabetes mellitus, atherosclerosis, or chronic renal failure, attributed to pressure from a condom catheter that was used 15 years after the inflatable penile prosthesis implantation.

Objectives: To compare the efficacy of intrathecal fentanyl and dorsal penile nerve block for postoperative pain management in patients undergoing inflatable penile prosthesis (IPP).

Patients And Methods: A prospective single-center study included 80 patients amenable to IPP. Patients were divided equally into two groups.

Objectives: To identify specific complications associated with testicle prosthesis at our dedicated transgender surgery center, over a long follow up period exceeding 5 years.

Methods: We conducted a retrospective chart review of all transmasculine patients undergoing testicular implants after metoidioplasty or phalloplasty between January 2016 to November 2019, stopping the series in 2019 to allow at least 3 year follow up.

Results: 23 patients were identified, 16 (70%) of whom had a prior metoidioplasty and 7 (30%) with prior phalloplasty receiving only testicular implants (no penile implant).
