Excision & Grafting with Implant- Length
Posted: Fri Sep 08, 2023 8:11 pm
Hey all!
I posted this in the Implant section, but will post it here as well..
I’m scheduled for E&G and an Implant next month. Due to Peyronie’s, I have about a 70’ bend. I have definitely lost some length, which Dr Karpman wasn’t very optimistic about getting it back with the implant. I didn’t think about it at the time, so I’ll ask you…
If the plaque is removed and grafted (with cadaver tissue) why can’t lost length be recaptured? It would seem to me that replacing hard plaque with soft tissue would allow for renewed length.
Any info would be appreciated and helpful.
Jim
