Appendectomy After Implant

Postby dunbar57 » Wed Nov 26, 2025 3:52 pm

I've had a three piece Titan implant for a few years.

I'm getting an appendectomy in January and want to make sure my implant isn't damaged. I let the surgeon know about my implant and while I was getting a CT Scan of my appendix I had the tech make sure and get my implant and reservoir in the image.

Anyone else had an appendectomy after getting an implant?

Any tips or precautions?

Hi Dumbar,
Looking at your signature, you have been in the wars. Congratulations, you are a survivor. I am learning about surviving after prostate removal and before that, a heart attack. I think I have had prostate cancer for a long time, but now it's all gone. Sorry, I cannot help you with an appendectomy, but you know what to do by now.
1955. I have had ED for years. We were planning to go for a Rigi10 in October 2024. Life got in the way (heart attack & stent), so we are now going for injections as a fill-in. 9/2025 More life roadblocks with prostate Cancer:((
