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.

Purpose: Urethral instrumentation (UI) in patients with an artificial urinary sphincter (AUS) demands technical considerations and poses a risk of urethral erosion, leading to serious clinical and legal consequences. We conducted a national survey to evaluate the knowledge and experience of Brazilian urologists with UI in these patients.
Methods: This study used an electronic survey distributed to members of the Brazilian Society of Urology.

Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to analyze pre- and intraoperative factors influencing the integrity of corporal bodies after placing an inflatable penile prosthesis (IPP), focusing on the occurrence of intraoperative and postoperative complications.
- Researchers reviewed a database of over 5,400 IPP surgeries conducted between 2016 and 2021, identifying significant predictors for complications linked to corporal integrity.
- Key predictors for complications included revision surgery, older age, and medical conditions like coronary artery disease or peripheral vascular disease, indicating the need for consideration of these factors during IPP placement to reduce risks.
