Successful Placement of Penile Prostheses in Men with Severe Corporal Fibrosis Following Vacuum Therapy Protocol

Abstract

The use of VT before surgery appears to result in softening of corporal fibrosis and facilitates placement of a PP regardless of the period from developing corporal fibrosis to starting VT. We strongly recommend preoperative corporal tissue rehabilitation with VT to improve surgical outcomes and to decrease difficulty during PP implantation in men with severe corporal fibrosis.
