Experience with implantation of the Small-Carrion penile implant for organic impotence. 1976

A Melman

The 13 patients described herein have had successful placement of a Small-Carrion penile prosthesis through a penile incision. Because of surgical control and possible decreased chance of infection this approach is advocated over the perineal incision except in cases of post-priapism impotence or simultaneous placement of a Kaufman anti-incontinence device.
