Abstract
To evaluate the effectiveness of the technique of corporeal counter incisions for penile prosthesis implantation in cases with marked corporeal fibrosis. Creating subtunical tunnels that are stretched transversely by the dilamezinsert instrument & Heggars dilators with its tip entering from one side and protruding from the counter incision to avoid urethral or corporeal perforation. Seventeen patients underwent this technique, mean age 56 y (range 42-71 y); 12 post removal of an infected prosthesis and five post priapism. In all cases, two rods were successfully implanted. In one case, a crural perforation occurred that was repaired intra-operatively. Corporeal counter incisions with transverse tissue stretching is a relatively simple technique to implant semirigid implants in fibrosed corpora.
