CX vs Titan Lifespan

Postby Samuele » Sat Apr 11, 2020 9:19 pm

Hi Guys,
I'm Samuele, 23 y/o from Rome, Italy.
My problem is the venous leak, i'm seriously considering an implant, but first i need to understand wich between AMS CX and Coloplast Titan are more lifespan considering my age.

It is hard to tell you which will last the longest, they are a mechanical device, and they might last 15 years like mine did or they could fail like my first revision which the pump failed after ten months. So I had a partial revision to replace the pump and it has been working great now for about a year and five months. But I had the CX first, now I have the LGX which I really like because it gave me back my full length that I had before my first implant.
I would say both are good devices.
age: 75 First implant around 2001, 59 at the time. AMS 700 Ultrex
revision Dec 2016. 2ND implant 21CM, 1rte AMS 700 LGX MS pump

I understand. I just wanted an opinion on life expectancy.
