Surgery of the penis: reconstruction and prostheses.

Implantation of penile prostheses was a very popular topic in the published literature on reconstructive urological surgery in the year 2000. Monocomponent, multicomponent, semirigid and inflatable prosthesis techniques were investigated. The best results were obtained with multicomponent inflatable prostheses. For penile reconstruction, various techniques were described. All authors used myocutaneous sensitive forearm flaps. Good results were reported.
