Abstract:
:Inflatable penile prosthesis (IPP) is an effective treatment for erectile dysfunction in patients' refractory to oral or injectable treatment. While the rate of infection has decreased over the past decade, it is still the most feared complication of IPP placement. Here, we assemble possible patient and surgical factors attributing to the risk of infection. Studies have been gathered addressing each of these factors, and an Oxford Level of Evidence is assigned to each recommendation based on strength of the study. The goal of this review is to inform surgeons of possible risks in order to further reduce the risk of infection and thus increase success of IPP placement.
