Back home and looked at my report:
"Removal of Colplast Malleble penile prosthesis and replacement with
Coloplast Titan with legacy pump (20cm/bilat 2cm RTE/ 75cc cloverleaf reservoir in the right retropubic space)"
Are they needed? Does it mean I have a total of 22cm of dick?
RTEs are used either to move up to a larger size of implant that doesn't exist or more frequently they're used so the corporotomies and the tubing line up where they should.
22cm total means your inside and outside dimensions. That's 8.66" total length of the implant but only part of that is beyond the pubic bone (distal).
