Re: Cylinder tips significantly uneven

Tips.jpg My tips were like above if you looked at the glans with the glans pointing at you. I did have a proximal perforation and leaned very hard to the left where I was straight before surgery. 100_1009.JPG I had pain and trouble moving my penis to straight or to my right. After my sling repair I...

Re: Pay for inspection pre-implant?

My understanding is that the device rep is in the OR with the devices (has the different sized devices and maybe different models). The doctor in many cases does prep the device and check it for correct function prior to place the implant. All this is observed by the trained device rep.

Re: Mechanical failure study...very interesting..

You can continue to look at small batch studies that are by the size skewed. You can keep ignoring the larger studies and the information published by the really good doctors. I cannot change the process you are committed to. All I can do is provide information to others that show larger studies tha...

Re: Mechanical failure study...very interesting..

When I had a mechanical failure at 3 years, I started paying attention to the time of failures reported on this site. I understand that folks with no issues may tend to stay quiet while folks with failures complain. Of those who complained, I noted very few failure complaints in the “expected” 10 y...

Re: Mechanical failure study...very interesting..

This is interesting. Sounds like the 10 year expectation of an implant lasting is nothing more than a pipe dream. It makes sense, still haven’t seen anyone on this site post with an implant 10 years older or more. Guess you need to read back farther. As I remember a guy with over 20 years on the ol...

Re: bought an expired AMS CX online

[quote="wolfpacker"]Maybe I had too many glasses of wine one night and I ended up buying an expired (not used) AMS CX 21cm online at a medical surplus website for $100. I was pretty curious especially about how the pump felt and worked compared to my Titan that's currently in my body. Didn...

Re: bought an expired AMS CX online

Hey, most of your questions are answered here. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5654325/ A thought from my side when I see the pics is: If we assume the old rule of thumb that two thirds of the implant length is in the penis and one third is in the crus, then the tubing surely connects ...

Re: Nervous Being up during surgery

[*] Hi When getting the surgery it seems my half of my body will be numb. Did anyone get anxious or nervous that they were kept still or couldn’t move. I wish I will be knocked out so I don’t know what’s going on. By seeing or hearing Thanks I have trouble with general. I hate it and most sedation ...

6 years in March. The repair was for a perforation and no parts of the original device were replaced.
