There is a paucity of data regarding the factors that contribute to penile prosthesis size. Co-morbid conditions and demographic data with implanted penile prosthesis size were correlated. METHODS The PROPPER registry prospectively evaluates outcomes in men undergoing penile prosthesis implantation. Men completed baseline questionnaires prior to prosthesis implantation and at 12 months. Demographic, etiology of ED, duration of ED, co-morbid conditions, and pre-operative penile length (flaccid and stretched), operative technique, implant type and length, duration of surgery were complied. Pearson correlation coefficient was generated for length of implanted penile prosthesis vs. comorbid conditions /demographic data. RESULTS 849 men underwent implantation of IPP at 11 study sites. One of patient with missing implant length was excluded. All AMS IPP types were included in the analysis. Comorbidities were CV disease (32.1%), DM (13.4%), and PD (11.9%). Primary etiology of ED: RP (29.0%), CV Disease (20.3%), DM (21.4%), Other (16.1%), PD (9.8%), and Priapism (1.2%). Mean duration of ED is 6.8 ± 4.6 years. Pearson Correlation was weakly negatively correlated with White/Caucasian (r = -0.13; p=0.0002), RP (r = -0.13; p=0.0001), concomitant presence of PD (r = -0.08; p=0.0146), venous leak (r = -0.08; p=0.0149), and SUI (r = -0.15; p<0.0001). Implant length was weakly positively correlated with Black/AA men (r = 0.27; p≤0.0005), CV disease (r = 0.13; p≤0.0005) and stretched penile length (r = 0.26; p<0.0001) There is a moderate positive correlation with flaccid penile length (r =0.33; p<0.0001). CONCLUSIONS Implanted penile cylindrical length is significantly negatively correlated with White/Caucasian ethnicity. History of RP and presence of SUI are also strongly negatively correlated with implant length. Positive correlates include Black/AA ethnicity, CV disease, preoperative stretched penile length, and flaccid penile length. There does not appear to be a significant correlation with diabetes or duration of ED. © 2015 by American Urological Association Education and Research, Inc.FiguresReferencesRelatedDetails Volume 193Issue 4SApril 2015Page: e568 Advertisement Copyright & Permissions© 2015 by American Urological Association Education and Research, Inc.MetricsAuthor Information Nelson Bennett More articles by this author Anthony Bella More articles by this author Gerard Henry More articles by this author Edward Karpman More articles by this author Will Brant More articles by this author LeRoy Jones More articles by this author Bryan Kansas More articles by this author Tobias Kohler More articles by this author Mohit Khera More articles by this author Expand All Advertisement Advertisement PDF downloadLoading ...
