Shaeer\u2019s IPA is performed through an infrapubic incision. A 3- to 5-cm length of the deep dorsal vein is stripped. A single 3- to 5-cm midline corporotomy is cut along the bed of the vein. Dilation, sizing, and implantation are performed through the single corporotomy on either side of the midline septum. Patients are discharged the same day and are allowed to bend the implant after 2\u00a0weeks and to commence intercourse after 3 weeks.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Outcomes<\/jats:title><jats:p>Operative time, postoperative satisfaction, International Index of Erectile Function 5 (IIEF-5), and possible complications were recorded.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>There were no statistically significant differences in age, postimplantation IIEF-5, or satisfaction between the 3 groups.
