Abstract
The American Medical Systems (AMS) malleable penile prosthesis was implanted in 57 patients from January, 1983 to 1985. Fifty-one per cent of the procedures were performed under local anesthesia, and 28 per cent in ambulatory (day) surgery. The prosthesis was evaluated in terms of cosmetic result, patient satisfaction and function, and postoperative complications. Ninety-one per cent of patients were satisfied with their decision to select the malleable prosthesis, and 66 per cent reported no difficulty with concealment. A comparison is made with data available from the alternative Jonas malleable prosthesis.
