Abstract:
The inflatable penile prosthesis (IPP) is a three-piece device indicated to treat erectile dysfunction. Although it is considered a safe procedure, it can result in complications, such as reservoir herniation. Literature is scarce regarding reservoir incarcerated herniation as a complication of IPP and its management. Surgery is required to reduce symptomatic hernias and properly secure the reservoir to avoid recurrence. An untreated incarcerated hernia may lead to strangulation and necrosis of abdominal organs, as well as implant malfunction. We present a rare case of a left-sided incarcerated inguinal hernia containing fat and a penile reservoir of a previous penile prosthesis implant in a 79-year-old man, as well as the technique used to correct it.
摘要:
充气阴茎假体(IPP)是一种用于治疗勃起功能障碍的三件式装置。虽然它被认为是一个安全的程序,会导致并发症,如水库疝。关于IPP及其治疗的并发症,关于水库嵌顿疝的文献很少。需要手术以减少有症状的疝气并适当地固定储层以避免复发。未经治疗的嵌顿疝可能导致腹部器官绞窄和坏死,以及植入物故障。我们介绍了一例罕见的病例,其中左侧嵌顿腹股沟疝中含有脂肪和先前阴茎假体植入物的阴茎储库,以及用来纠正它的技术。
