Abstract:
The Scott inflatable penile prosthesis has undergone a continual evolution since its introduction in 1973. A review of 266 patients at Duke University Medical Center who received primary implantation of AMS inflatable penile prostheses from 1979 to 1988 revealed the modifications in the prosthesis have increased the functional longevity and hence the reliability of this surgical treatment for erectile impotence.
