Abstract
A new noninflatable silicone penile prosthesis incorporating a central core of braided silver (Jonas) has been implanted in 29 patients to date. Organic impotence was diagnosed in 24 patients (83 per cent). The complication rate in this initial experience has been approximately 10 per cent. Based on a questionnaire returned by 19 patients (66 per cent) the patient/partner satisfaction was uniformly high. Self-image was reported as improved in 67 per cent. Our initial experience indicates that this prosthesis provides surgical simplicity, superior cosmetic results and an acceptable complication rate compared to other available penile prostheses.
