How does an erection take
place?
The interior of the penis is formed by three sectors,
a spongy body that contains the urethra (conduit where
the urine flows) which ends in the gland and 2 cavities
called cavernous bodies responsible for the erection,
which are very rich in blood vessels.
When the penis is in the state of rest, these cavernous
bodies are slightly full of blood, but on having received
sexual stimulation, the brain sends signs so that the
cavernous bodies fill with blood and the exit floodgates
close, and in this way the penis becomes more and more
rigid.
When the signs that the brain sends are discontinuous
(example: neurological injuries) or the blood flow is
insufficient (example: vascular injuries) or the erectile
tissue is damaged, the erection is weak or nonexistent.

What does the placement of a penis prosthesis consist
of?
The procedure is performed under spinal anesthesia with
a small incision in the skin and then the internal tissue
of the cavernous bodies (organ responsible for the erectile
function) is replaced by one prosthesis that would realize
the erection in artificial form design of prosthesis
being inflated

What patient can received
penis prosthesis treatment?
The first thing to do is perform a correct diagnosis,
for which the interview with the doctor is essential.
The treatment must be categorized from minor to major
and adapted for every particular case.
It is necessary in the first instance for the patient
to undergo psychological therapy and medical treatment
of the base illnesses that predispose them to an erectile
malfunction; for example: Diabetes, Hipercolesterolemia,
etc.
Then to implement a first-line therapy with oral medications,
like for example: Sildenafil or Tadalafil.
In case that this therapy is insufficient or does not
work or is contraindicated for presenting cardiologic
pathology, it is possible to try an intracavernosa therapy
with glass substances you activate or devices of gap
The placement of a penis prosthesis is one more alternative
in the set of therapeutic tools we have, which we reserve
for those patients who have failed in other kinds of
therapies.
