Iatrogenic chordee following insertion of inflatable penile prosthesis

Chordee deformity is a rare complication following insertion of the inflatable penile prosthesis through a penoscrotal incision. The deformity occurs as a result of failure to inflate and deflate the device and to maintain the penis against the abdomen in the immediate postoperative period. When this occurs it can be corrected by incision of the fibrous scar and replacement with synthetic graft material.
