Material and methods: One hundred forty two patients who underwent penile prosthesis implantation [M-PPI (Promedon- Tube\u00ae, Cordoba, Argentina): 81, and A-PPI (American Medical Systems, Minnesota, USA): 61] between 2013-2018 were evaluated retrospectively. Patients\u2019 age, body mass index, smoking history, etiological factors, modified \u201cErectile Dysfunction Inventory of Treatment Satisfaction (EDITS) Questionnaire\u201d scores, shortening of the penis, and complications were recorded. Results: The patients who performed A-PPI implantation were younger (56.27 \u00b1 10.81 vs. 51.47 \u00b1 11.79, p = 0.009). The EDITS scores of 31(38.2%) patients who underwent M-PPI and 44 (72.4%) patients who underwent A-PPI were available. It was observed that the scores on the following questions were statistical significantly higher in the A-PPI group: \u201cOverall, are you satisfied with your penile prosthesis?, How much of your expectations did penile prosthesis meet?, How often do you use your penile prosthesis?\u201d (p = 0.05, p = 0.048, p = 0.038). No difference was observed between the groups in terms of the scores on the other three questions (p = 0.447, p = 0.326, p = 0.365). A 61.3% of patients in MPPI (19\/31) group, and 56.8% of patients in A-PPI (25\/44) group stated penile shortening (p = 0.417). Mean shortening was reported as 2.1 \u00b1 0.45 cm, and 2.12 \u00b1 0.52 cm, in M-PPI and A-PPI groups, respectively (p = 0.90). Conclusion:It is remarkable that the patients who underwent A-PPI experienced higher satisfaction with their prosthesis. Even though it has not been evidenced in the current literature data, patients who have had either M-PPI or A-PPI should be informed about the risk of penile shortening.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.4081\/aiua.2020.1.25","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,4,6]],"date-time":"2020-04-06T19:45:12Z","timestamp":1586202312000},"page":"25-29","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":14,"title":["Comparison of the patient\u2019s satisfaction underwent penile prosthesis; Malleable versus Ambicor: Single center experience"],"prefix":"10.4081","volume":"92","author":[{"given":"Omer","family":"Bayrak","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sakip","family":"Erturhan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ilker","family":"Seckiner","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mehmet","family":"Ozturk","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Haluk","family":"Sen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ahmet","family":"Erbagci","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"2549","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,4,6]]},"container-title":["Archivio Italiano di Urologia e Andrologia"],"original-title":[],"link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/pagepressjournals.org\/index.php\/aiua\/article\/download\/aiua.2020.1.25\/8660","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/pagepressjournals.org\/index.php\/aiua\/article\/download\/aiua.2020.1.25\/8660","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2020,10,28]],"date-time":"2020-10-28T21:43:47Z","timestamp":1603921427000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/pagepressjournals.org\/index.php\/aiua\/article\/view\/aiua.2020.1.25"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2020,4,6]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"1","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,3,31]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.4081\/aiua.2020.1.25","relation":{},"ISSN":["2282-4197","1124-3562"],"issn-type":[{"value":"2282-4197","type":"electronic"},{"value":"1124-3562","type":"print"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2020,4,6]]}}}
