Late complications of spontaneous urethral erosion of a malleable penile prosthesis in a young patient.
While oral agents are currently suggested for the initial treatment of erectile dysfunction, penile prosthesis implantation (malleable or inflatable) is accepted as a third-line therapy if intracorporeal injection and intraurethral treatment fail as a secondary choice. Urethral erosion of the malleable penile prosthesis is a well-known complication, mostly due to the indwelling catheter. We rep...
متن کاملLate complications of spontaneous urethral erosion of malleable penile prosthesis in a young patient
INTRODUCTION Most men with erectile dysfunction are initially offered systemic therapy with a phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitor, and then a choice of intracorporeal injection or intraurethral treatment. If these initial treatments fail or are rejected, penile prosthesis implantation is usually the third-line treatment option. The technology for penile prosthesis has been evolving, and it has b...
متن کاملSpontaneous DNA breakage in single living cells of Escherichia coli
Generation of controls with a single DSB in a single chromosome per cell. When shifted to restrictive temperature, cells with a temperature-sensitive replication-initiation defective mutation, such as dnaA(TS), continue to divide until most contain a single chromosome [Supplementary Fig. 1]. We exploited this property to generate cells with a single chromosome so that we could assess the abilit...
متن کاملSpontaneous Lead Breakage in Implanted Spinal Cord Stimulation Systems
Spinal cord stimulation (SCS) has become an established clinical option for treatment of refractory chronic pain. Current hardware and implantation techniques for SCS are already highly developed and continuously improving; however, equipment failures over the course of long-term treatment are still encountered in a relatively high proportion of the cases treated with it. Percutaneous SCS leads...
متن کاملScrotal Abscess Precipitating Late Infection of a Malleable Penile Prosthesis: The Risk Never Evanesces.
Although infrequent, infections represent the dreadful complication of penile prosthesis implantation. The incidence substantially decreases after a few infection-free postoperative months. We report herein a case of a very late penile prosthesis infection from a fistualizing scrotal abscess in a 67-year-old man. The patient presented with a one-month history of persistent penile-base discharge...
