Using your penile implant

AMS 700™ Penile Implant

How to use your penile implant

The AMS 700™ Penile Implant is discreetly contained entirely inside the body, including a pair of cylinders implanted in the penis, a pump placed inside the scrotum and a saline-filled reservoir placed in the lower abdomen. The implant works by squeezing and releasing the pump to move fluid into the cylinders, which creates an erection. 

Your implant in action:

  • When inflated, your penis will be firm and rigid like a natural erection which will last as long as you desire.1
  • Typically, the implant does not interfere with ejaculation or orgasm.1-5
  • Your implant is designed to provide a natural, flaccid appearance when deflated.1

Please note: Your AMS 700 implant may have either a TENACIO™ or MS Pump™ as part of its design. If you're unsure which you have, please contact your doctor.

AMS 700™ INFLATABLE PENILE IMPLANT

Your doctor is your best source for information on the risks and benefits of the AMS 700™ Inflatable Penile Prosthesis. Talk to your doctor for a complete listing of risks, warnings and important safety information.

The AMS 700™ Inflatable Penile Prosthesis is intended for use in the treatment of male erectile dysfunction (impotence). Implanting a penile prosthesis will damage or destroy any remaining ability to have a natural erection, as well as make other treatment options (oral medications, vacuum devices or injections) impossible.

Men with diabetes, spinal cord injuries or skin infections may have an increased risk of infection. Implantation may result in penile curvature or scarring. Some AMS 700 devices contain an antibiotic (InhibiZone™ Antibiotic Surface Treatment). The device is not suitable for patients who are allergic to the antibiotics contained within the device (rifampin, minocycline HCl or other tetracyclines) or those who have systemic lupus, these patients should use one of the devices that do not contain InhibiZone antibiotic surface treatment.

Potential risks may include: device malfunction/failure leading to additional surgery, device migration potentially leading to exposure through the tissue, wearing away/loss of tissue (device/tissue erosion) infection, unintended-inflation of the device and pain/soreness.
