Infection Rates of Rifampin/Gentamicin-Coated Titan Coloplast Penile Implants. Comparison with Inhibizone-Impregnated AMS Penile Implants

Abstract

Both rifampin/gentamicin-coated Titan(®) Coloplast penile implants and Inhibizone-impregnated (AMS) penile implants appear to have lower infection rates compared with vancomycin/gentamycin-coated Titan(®) Coloplast penile implants The present study does not suggest superiority of rifampin/gentamicin-coated Titan(®) Coloplast penile implants or Inhibizone-impregnated (AMS) penile implants but we strongly suggest that all Titan(®) Coloplast penile implants should be coated with rifampin/gentamicin solution.
