Objective:
To report the finding of malleable penile prosthesis extension tips in an ectopic position.
Method:
We retrospectively analyzed two clinical cases of ectopic finding of prosthetic implant extension tips and performed a bibliographic review.
Results:
In the cases described, conservative behavior was decided given the absence of signs, symptomatology and the efficacy of the normally positioned implant.
Conclusion:
The migration of the penile prosthetic implant is a very uncommon complication, more so the finding of a tip extension in an ectopic position. Reports in the literature on the behavior to follow in this type of complications are absent.
