The AMS Family of Implants

The AMS Ambicor is a two piece prothesis that enjoys the highest satisfaction rate of all the implants available for men who have Erectile Disfunction. It also hold the distinction of having a higher level of satisfaction over all methods that a man can use to over come his ED. This implant is easier for a surgeon to implant as their is no reservoir to implant inside the abdomen. It has two cylinders that implant into each chamber of the corpora cavernosa, along with the pump which is implanted into a man's scrotum. This implant enjoys an extremely high reliability index. Far above the other implants available. In the January 2007 issue of the Journal of Urology reported on the AMS Ambicor implant and this implant also is very easy to inflate. It only needs 5 to 6 pumps to produce an erection. This implant does not expand the girth or the length of the penis and does provide a very suitable erection.

The AMS 700 CX is a 3 piece implant that provides for expansion as well as a very stiff erection.
It does require the surgion to implant a reservoir in the abdomen. It also has a very high degree of satisfaction among users.

The 3rd three piece implant is the AMS 700 Ultrex implant. This is the AMS implant that is the most pospular implant available for implantation. It also has three parts. There are two cylinders that are implanted into the Corpora Cavernosa. Attached to the cylinders via tubing is the pump which is implanted within the mans scrotum. The reservoir is implanted into the lower abdomen via the inguinal opening along side the vas deferen. This implant is the most popular because it has expanded girth and expands in length as well. It's a well known fact that the majority ofmen loose some length on their erection. Some don't loose any, and some gain length up to 3 centimeters. 1 inch equals 2.5 centimeters. For men who have had abdominal injuries that have left scar tissue. The Ambicor is the implant of choice. It is also chosen when the man has limited dexterity. It is very easy to pump to erection and also easy to deflate. Because not all of the fluid is drained from the cylinders, men don't completely go flacid, so its not as natural looking as the AMS 700 series implants.

I have chosen the Ultrex as my choice in implants and will have it implanted on Tuesday, May 29th.
