Erosion of an inflatable penile prosthesis reservoir into an ileal conduit
The Journal of Urology
|February 1, 1987
Abstract:
We report an unusual complication of an inflatable penile prosthesis. The penile prosthesis reservoir had been placed intra-abdominally and it eroded into an ileal conduit. The reservoir was removed endoscopically but the patient ultimately required creation of a new ileal conduit. Placement of reservoirs intraperitoneally risks erosion into the bowel.
