Malleable penile prosthesis
Pair of semi-rigid cylinders with a bendable metal core (coiled wire or nitinol) covered in silicone.
How it is used
Implanted in each corpus cavernosum to provide permanent rigidity for penetration, with no inflation mechanism.
Clinical tip
Having no moving parts gives it a very low mechanical failure rate, though the penis remains permanently semi-rigid.
