Abstract
A prosthesis device is designed to be subcutaneously implanted into a penis above the corpus cavernosum and extending from the base of the penis to the glans penis. The prosthesis device contains one or more inflatable tubes for enabling an erectile function of the penis, and these are covered by a shaped body for enabling an improved appearance, texture and size to the penis. Integral with the tubes is a base which is mounted to the pubic bone. The invention includes a manual pump preferably implanted into the scrotum and interconnected with the base by a flexible conduit to inflate the tubes. A fluid is pumped into the inflatable tubs for pressurization thereof so as to cause the the penis to become erect. The tubes are directed upwardly in positional orientation so as to enable the penis to move in a more natural manner.
