摘要

Penile prosthesis implant (PPI) remains an effective and safe treatment option for men with erectile dysfunction (ED).However,PPI surgery can be associated with a higher risk of complications in certain populations.This article provides a critical review of relevant publications pertaining to PPI in men with diabetes,significant corporal fibrosis,spinal cord injury,concurrent continence surgery,and complex salvage cases.The discussion of each category of special populations includes a brief review of the surgical challenges and a practical action-based set of recommendations.While specific patient populations posed considerable challenges in PPI surgery,strict pre-and postoperative management coupled with safe surgical practice is a prerequisite to achieving excellent clinical outcomes and high patient satisfaction rate.
