A multi-institutional update on surgical outcomes after penile silicone sleeve implantation

CONCLUSION: This is the largest study to characterize the safety of the penile silicone sleeve implant across multiple institutions. In men who desire cosmetic size augmentation, silicone sleeve implant surgery is associated with significantly increased flaccid penile length and girth. Complications are mainly cosmetic and may be corrected; however, patients should be appropriately counseled on the risk of erosion, which appears to be higher than previously reported.PMID:38571490 | PMC:PMC10989031 | DOI:10.1177/17562872241241858
