Abstract
A delivery tool and related methods for transporting a pre-assembled implantable penile prosthesis to an operating room. The delivery tool includes at least a first cap with receptacles for receiving and retaining pre-connected components during transport to prevent shifting, tangling and/or damage to the pre-connected components. The receptacles can be adapted for receiving pre-connected components, tubing used to connect the components, as well as stand-alone components that are utilized during a surgical procedure. The delivery tool can include cushioning elements for protecting the pre-connected components from damage caused by shifting during transport.
