Prótese Peniana Articulada - Tratamentos contra Disfunção Erétil

It is estimated that over 150 million men suffer with this problem around the globe. Nearly 50% of men over 50 years of age have this condition characterized by the persistent difficulty of having enough of an erection to maintain sexual intercourse.

The use of an articulated prosthesis is only one of the solutions to reverse erectile dysfunction, since the first treatment done is usually with oral medication, phosphodiesterase inhibitors. Afterwards, other actions are applied such as the use of injectables or pump devices.

What is an articulated prosthesis?

How is an articulated prosthesis implanted?
  • An articulated prosthesis is a malleable implant that favors penis stiffness, allowing the individual to recover their ability to have sex with regular ejaculations and orgasms

  • Treatment gives life quality back to the patient and his partner.

  • The articulated prosthesis is a detached model because it is a simpler option when compared to inflatable prosthesis, besides, they provide better stiffness to the penis, significantly improving sensibility in sex.

  • According to studies done with men who have the articulated prosthesis, around 90% of them report being satisfied with the results the implant caused.

  • The goal in placing the articulated prosthesis in is to replace the natural system of penis stiffening with the artificial mechanism. That way, the man has normal sexual stimulation without the need to ingest medication.

  • Articulated prosthesis implementation is done with a simple surgery, with local anesthesia and a small incision in the basis of the penis.
