An Experience of Jonas Silicone-Silver Penile Prosthesis for Erectile Impotence / 대한비뇨기과학회지

ABSTRACT

Intracorporeal synthetic penile implants, inflatable and noninflatable, have proved effective surgical adjuvants to the treatment of impotence during the last 20 years. Jonas noninflatable silicone prosthesis in which silver wires are embedded allows voluntary downward bending of the penis for urination in resting position and upward straightening for intercourse, thus, combining the simplicity of a noninflatable prosthesis with a more normal appearing detumescent phase. We experienced a case of Jonas silicone-silver penile prosthesis for erectile impotence in a 39 years old male.
