ORIGINAL RESEARCH-SURGERY: Upsizing of Inflatable Penile Implant Cylinders in Patients with Corporal Fibrosis

Wider and sometimes longer cylinders can be substituted in patients with corporal fibrosis that required implantation with downsized cylinders because of fibrotic corpora. Prolonged inflation over an 8‐ to 12‐month period results in expansion of the cylinder cavity, permitting standard‐sized cylinders in all patients.
