Penile prosthesis and treatment of penile curvature
Surgical solutions for erectile dysfunction that has not responded to treatment, and for significant curvature.
Consultant Urologist, Andrology & Male Infertility
A penile prosthesis is a device placed entirely inside the body. It is an option for erectile dysfunction when tablets and injections have not worked or are unsuitable.
Peyronie’s disease is scar tissue inside the penis that causes curvature, which can be painful or interfere with intercourse, and can come with erectile dysfunction.
