Cylinder rerouting for lateral extrusion after inflatable penile prosthesis implantation - Surgical technique revision

Arch Ital Urol Androl. 2020 Oct 2;92(3). doi: 10.4081/aiua.2020.3.271.

Abstract

Lateral cylinder extrusion is a potential complication of penile prosthesis implantation. Several methods have been proposed for repairing this complication. We present a case where a cylinder re-routing technique, first described by Dr. John Mulcahy, was used and a revision of the literature.
