Abstract
Although the first inflatable penile prosthesis was introduced over 30 years ago for the treatment of erectile dysfunction, technological innovations have continually improved these penile implants since that time. This review will highlight outcomes reported in peer-reviewed literature during the past 5 years related to several recent advancements in three-piece inflatable penile prosthesis technology of interest to surgeons who implant these devices. Research findings reported during the past 5 years have been related to improvements in cylinder and pump design to provide more reliable performance with good device concealment and a normal look and feel, to ease inflation and deflation, and to reduce infection complications with inflatable prostheses. It is important for all physicians, who implant life-changing penile prosthetics, to understand the most recent advances in technology in order to best serve their patients.
