    摘要: A penile prosthesis system involves the use of an inflatable penile prosthesis which is expandable under pressurization from a flaccid to an erect state. The prosthesis exhibits a low modulus of elasticity in expansion but ultimately reaches a modulus of elasticity and resists further expansion. The prosthesis may also be formed of a material which elastically expands from a flaccid to an erect state and elastically contracts thereafter. In its erect state the prosthesis is taut and the surrounding tissue may be similarly taut and pressurized because of the expansion of the prosthesis in girth. If a weakening occurs in the surrounding tissue, the tendancy to form localized penile bulges is limited because of the inability of the prosthesis to expand readily beyond its modulus transition.

    摘要: An instrument (10) places a stent (11) axially and is reusable with different size stents (11). A loop on an arm (14) extends tangentially so at least one bore (15) aligns axially. A tab (16) extends from the arm (14) axially and from the loop in a plane. A ring on a limb (18) extends tangentially and has an axially aligned hole (19) in a plane. A bracket (20) extends from the tab (16) over and in front of the limb (18). A tube (21) extends for coaxial deposition axially, into the bore (15) and the hole (19) locating the ring forward of the loop. An end on the tube (21) opposite the bore (15) grips the stent (11). A sheath (23) coaxial to the tube (21) slides along the end and extends from the hole (19). A sheath (23) cavity (24) near the end is for the stent (11). A shaft (25) in the plane attaches to the bracket (20) parallel and axially conjugates with the limb (18) and arm (14) to prevent rotation.

    摘要: An apparatus and method of use are disclosed to treat and/or diagnose urological disorders. The non-implantable device includes a light source housed within a light source segment. The light source segment is of a sufficiently small size and configuration so that it can be inserted through the urethra and positioned adjacent the target site in the patient. Different types of light sources can be used to achieve a variety of energy levels and distributions useful in treating incontinence disorders. Both incoherent and coherent light sources may be sued with the present invention. In addition, the light from the light source can be designed to be pulsed or continuous wave and may be in any suitable spectrum, including visible (such as white light) and infrared. The particular characteristics of the light emitted from the light source, such as wavelength, frequency, amplitude, etc., depend upon the particular treatment and procedure.

    摘要: A penile prosthesis beneficially includes components coated with parylene in order to increase product life and reduce wear. In particular, components of the inflatable cylinder benefits from having been coated with parylene. The parylene-coated cylinder components are resistant to wear generated by pinching of the cylinder when the cylinder is in a flaccid state. The parylene-coated cylinder may be formed by masking a tube of silicone (or other appropriate material) and vapor coating the silicone tube with parylene. Further, where a double walled cylinder is used, each of two tubes making up the double wall cylinder can have their surfaces coated with parylene, thus increasing cylinder life and avoiding wear.
