Demographics, previous treatment of erectile dysfunction, comorbidities, social history, postoperative problems (POPs), and surgical outcomes were tabulated. Patients completed the International Index of Erection Function (IIEF) and the Erectile Dysfunction Inventory of Treatment Satisfaction questionnaires. We defined a complication, according to the Clavien-Dindo classification, as any deviation from the ideal postoperative course that is not inherent in the procedure and does not constitute an FTC. FTC was defined as a POP that was not a complication. The \u03c72 tests, t-tests, or Wilcoxon rank-sum tests were used.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Outcomes<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Patient-reported and objective outcomes after PPI.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Our enrollment consisted of 185 patients, and we contacted 124 (67%). Of these, 16 (12.9%) had a POP requiring reoperation. Eight patients developed surgical complications (three infections, four erosions, and one chronic pain). Eight patients had FTC (four malpositions and four malfunctions). Factors that correlated with POPs were previous PPI, body mass index higher than 30 kg\/m2, and previous treatment with intracorporal injections (P &amp;lt; .05 for all comparisons). Patients who had POPs scored significantly lower on the IIEF erectile function and intercourse satisfaction domains (P &amp;lt; .05 for the two comparisons), but not on the orgasmic function, sexual desire, and overall satisfaction domains (P &amp;gt; .05 for all comparisons).<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Clinical Implications<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>POPs after PPI surgery can be more accurately categorized using the Clavien-Dindo classification of surgical complications to more clearly distinguish surgical complications from FTC.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Strengths and Limitations<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Limitations of our study include its retrospective approach. Our series included a large proportion of patients treated for prostate cancer, which limits the generalizability of our findings.

An assessment of POPs encompasses more than just complication rates; it also reflects FTC. Even when POPs occur, patients can still derive satisfaction if they are correctively managed. Factors that possibly predispose to POPs include previous PPI surgery, body mass index greater than 30 kg\/m2, and history of intracorporal injections.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jsxm.2017.02.018","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,4,8]],"date-time":"2017-04-08T12:17:02Z","timestamp":1491653822000},"page":"731-737","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1016\/elsevier_cm_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Distinguishing Failure to Cure From Complication After Penile Prosthesis Implantation"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"14","author":[{"given":"Miguel","family":"Pineda","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"The James Buchanan Brady Urological Institute \u00a0 , Baltimore, MD , USA"},{"name":"The Johns Hopkins Hospital \u00a0 , Baltimore, MD , USA"},{"name":"Staten Island University Hospital \u00a0 , Staten Island, NY , USA"},{"name":"Northwell Health System \u00a0 , Staten Island, NY , USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Arthur L.","family":"Burnett","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"The James Buchanan Brady Urological Institute \u00a0 , Baltimore, MD , USA"},{"name":"The Johns Hopkins Hospital \u00a0 , Baltimore, MD , USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,4,8]]},"reference":[{"key":"2023011111051339400_bib1","first-page":"S25","article-title":"Erectile dysfunction","volume":"175","author":"Burnett","year":"2006","journal-title":"J\u00a0Urol"},{"key":"2023011111051339400_bib2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"S108","DOI":"10.1038\/sj.ijir.3900587","article-title":"Surgical management of penile prosthesis complications","volume":"12","author":"Mulcahy","year":"2000","journal-title":"Int J Impot Res"},{"issue":"Suppl 5","key":"2023011111051339400_bib3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"S139","DOI":"10.1038\/sj.ijir.3901091","article-title":"Diagnosis, treatment and prevention of penile prosthesis infection","volume":"15","author":"Carson","year":"2003","journal-title":"Int J Impot Res"},{"key":"2023011111051339400_bib4","first-page":"2855","article-title":"Comparison between AMS 700\u2122 CX and Coloplast\u2122 Titan inflatable penile prosthesis for Peyronie's disease treatment and remodeling: clinical outcomes and patient satisfaction","volume":"10","author":"Chung","year":"2013","journal-title":"J\u00a0Sex Med"},{"key":"2023011111051339400_bib5","first-page":"376","article-title":"Efficacy, safety and patient satisfaction outcomes of the AMS 700CX inflatable penile prosthesis: results of a long-term multicenter study.
