We report results of a surgical method designed to avoid these problems. From 2003 to 2013, 35 consecutive patients received a malleable penile implant. Of these, 15 men (the enhancing group) were also treated with venous ligation of the retrocoronal venous plexus, deep dorsal vein, and cavernosal veins. The remaining 20 men formed the control group, treated with only a penile implant. Follow-up ranged from 1.1 to 10.0 years, with an average of 6.7 \u00b1 1.5 years. Although preoperative glanular dimension did not differ significantly between the two groups, significant respective difference at one day and one year postoperatively was found in the glanular circumference (128.8 \u00b1 6.8\u2009mm versus 115.3 \u00b1 7.2\u2009mm and 130.6 \u00b1 7.2\u2009mm versus 100.5 \u00b1 7.3\u2009mm; both<mml:math xmlns:mml=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1998\/Math\/MathML\" id=\"M1\"><mml:mrow><mml:mi>P&lt;0.05<\/mml:mi><\/mml:mrow><\/mml:math>), radius (38.8 \u00b1 2.7\u2009mm versus 37.1 \u00b1 2.8\u2009mm and 41.5 \u00b1 2.6\u2009mm versus 33.8 \u00b1 2.9\u2009mm; latter<mml:math xmlns:mml=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1998\/Math\/MathML\" id=\"M2\"><mml:mrow><mml:mi>P&lt;0.01<\/mml:mi><\/mml:mrow><\/mml:math>), and satisfaction rate (91.7% versus 53.3%,<mml:math xmlns:mml=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1998\/Math\/MathML\" id=\"M3\"><mml:mrow><mml:mi>P&lt;0.01<\/mml:mi><\/mml:mrow><\/mml:math>) as well.
