AMS 700™ Inflatable Penile Implant
An inflatable penile implant like the AMS 700 Penile Implant may be the best treatment option for men with erectile dysfunction. A penile implant is a device that is implanted into the penis, usually on an outpatient basis. The implant is entirely concealed within the body so no one is able to see it and is controlled by the user to achieve an erection. This treatment is designed to allow for spontaneity and the erection is maintained for as long as the man desires.
How Does the Inflatable Penile Implant Work?
The AMS 700™ Inflatable Penile Prosthesis is a medical device implanted to treat erectile dysfunction, providing an option for men who do not respond to other treatments. The AMS 700™ consists of a pair of inflatable cylinders placed in the penis, a pump situated in the scrotum, and a fluid reservoir within the abdomen. The device allows individuals to manually control erections by pumping fluid from the reservoir into the cylinders, thus mimicking the natural process of achieving and maintaining an erection.
What Happens During an Inflatable Penile Implant Procedure?
The AMS 700 penile implant procedure involves the surgical placement of the AMS 700 Inflatable Penile Prosthesis under general or spinal anesthesia. During the surgery, Dr. Evans will make a small incision in the lower abdomen or scrotal area to insert the inflatable cylinders into the penis, along with a fluid reservoir in the abdomen and a pump in the scrotum. The outpatient procedure takes about 30 minutes and is aimed at restoring erectile function in men who have not responded to other treatments.
Will a Penile Implant Cause Penile Enlargement?
While penile implants allow men to get an erection, they don’t increase sexual desire or sensation. The size of your penis will depend on your anatomy and the tissues ability to enlarge. If you are looking to increase the size of your penis, you may want to consider other procedures that are designed to increase girth or length.
