Penile prosthesis (erectile implant) surgery is a life-changing procedure for men experiencing severe erectile dysfunction. However, certain medical criteria must be met for this surgery to be performed. In specialized andrology clinics, the questions of who is a candidate for a penile implant and how surgery candidates are determined are addressed with all medical details.
Primary Candidates for Penile Prosthesis Surgery
Patients who have the following health conditions and have not benefited from other treatments are the most suitable candidates for a prosthesis:
Uncontrolled Diabetes Patients: Diabetes causes irreversible severe damage to the penile blood vessels and nerves. In these patients, medications generally do not work, and a prosthesis is the only definitive solution.Patients Who Underwent Radical Cancer Surgery: Patients whose erectile nerves leading to the penis were completely severed or damaged during prostate, bladder, or colon cancer surgeries.Severe Peyronie's (Penile Curvature) Patients: Patients experiencing severe erectile loss along with penile curvature, whose plaques cannot be resolved by other methods.Severe Arteriosclerosis and Heart Patients: Patients with coronary artery disease for whom taking sexual performance pills poses a life-threatening risk.Obtaining Medical Clearances
Prior to prosthesis surgery, the surgical process is planned in the safest manner by obtaining necessary clearances from cardiology, endocrinology, and internal medicine specialists to confirm that patients are fit for anesthesia.
