Abstract

Furlow insertion tool is frequently used during the insertion of the inflatable penile prosthesis cylinders inside the corporal bodies. Although these devices are completely disassembled and separately sterilized after each operation, the residual blood clots and tissues after inadequate cleaning may become the primary sources of penile prosthesis infection. In order to minimize the risk of infection, Rigicon, Inc. (NY, USA) has developed the first disposable Furlow insertion tool. Head-to-head comparison studies with conventional and disposable Furlow insertion tools are necessary to confirm if there is a significant difference in post-implant infection rates.
