Abstract
A penile prosthetic includes an insertion tool contained inside of an inflatable bladder of a penile implant. The penile implant is sized for insertion into a dilated corpora cavernosum of a penis. The penile implant has a proximal tip that is insertable into the crus penis, with the inflatable bladder connected to the proximal tip. The inflatable bladder has a first column strength and includes a distal tip that is insertable into the glans penis. The insertion tool provides the inflatable bladder with an effective column strength that is greater than the first column strength.
