Abstract
INTRODUCTION: Migration of the penile prosthesis reservoir into the bladder is rare. METHODS: A 67-year-old male was found with painful gross hematuria after two revision surgeries of the penile prosthesis. RESULTS: The inflatable penile prosthesis reservoir migrated into the bladder. A new reservoir was repositioned on the contralateral side to the erosion site with salvage surgery. CONCLUSIONS: Erosion of penile prosthesis reservoir into the bladder due to shortened tubing by multiple revision surgeries is rare. In selected cases, reposition of a new reservoir on the contralateral side to the erosion site can be used as salvage surgery.
