The AMS CX 700 three-component penile prosthesis implant is an advanced solution for treating erectile dysfunction in patients who do not respond to other therapies. This device provides a firm and controllable erection, ensuring high satisfaction for both the patient and their partner.
In some cases, the need for a penile prosthesis implant is associated with the presence of Peyronie’s disease, a condition characterized by the formation of fibrotic plaques that cause abnormal penile curvature. In the specific case treated in the video, the patient had ventral curvature secondary to this condition.
The surgical procedure involves several critical steps. First, an incision is made to access the corpora cavernosa and insert the prosthesis. Then, manual fracture of the fibrotic plaque is performed to correct the curvature and restore proper anatomical alignment of the penis. The procedure requires precision and extensive knowledge of surgical techniques to ensure optimal outcomes.
The AMS CX 700 system consists of three components: two cylinders implanted within the corpora cavernosa, a control pump positioned in the scrotum, and a fluid reservoir that allows inflation and deflation of the prosthesis. Thanks to this mechanism, the patient can achieve a natural erection in terms of both rigidity and aesthetics.
After the procedure, the patient undergoes a rehabilitation period to ensure the prosthesis functions correctly and optimize both functional and aesthetic results. The success of the operation depends on careful patient selection, the surgeon’s expertise, and adherence to post-operative recommendations.
The surgical procedures shown in this video were performed by Prof. Gabriele Antonini. Some of these images, intended for a medical audience and educational purposes, may be intense for those unaccustomed to surgical scenes.
