Penile Prostheses

Phalloplasty represents the most complete genitoperineal transformation for trans men. Although voiding while standing is a priority for most trans men, most patients want to use the neophallus for sexual experience after they are accustomed to their new voiding abilities. Different techniques have been used to obtain rigidity in the neophallus, often resulting in complications and failure. Implantation of an erectile prosthesis remains the best option for achieving sexual intercourse in trans men. This article discusses the current state of art of penile prostheses in trans men, including a description of the prostheses, techniques for implantation, and complications.
