Abstract
A penile implant for treating impotence is provided. The implant is adapted to be implanted in the corpus cavernosum of a penis, and be postoperatively adjustable to selectively assume an inactivated state in which the penis is flaccid, and an activated state in which the penis is erected. The implant has a relatively short proximal portion configured to be placed in the root of the penis, a relatively long distal portion configured to be placed to extend along the protruding part of the penis, and a bending portion arranged between the proximal portion and the distal portion, the bending portion being adapted to in the activated state allow the proximal portion to assume a position that is more upwardly oriented than a position of the proximal portion, and a feedback device for sending feedback information from inside a patient's body to an outside thereof, the feedback information being related to at least one of a physical parameter of the patient and a functional parameter related to the penile implant.
