The reason why many patients choose prosthetic implant surgery is that they not only hope to cure erectile dysfunction, but also hope that the size can also return to the pre-ill condition.
However, some patients said that the size after the operation was significantly shortened, and some patients even complained that they had 2 or 3 cm shortened after the operation.
Why is this?
In fact, the following two possibilities are the most likely to cause significant changes in size after surgery:
1. The previous measurement may be estimates.
Even if everyone cares about the size, there may not be many people who use hands-on measurements, and some people even have errors in the method when measuring.
Therefore, most patients use their eyes to estimate the size before they get sick.
plus after getting sick, their impression of their size will become more blurred.
After the operation, they took the correct measurement method and found that there were great errors.
2. Causes of atrophy caused by years of illness.
Through investigation and clinical observation of patients, it was found that organic erectile dysfunction caused by trauma, vascular lesions, etc., may indeed have certain atrophy if the organic erectile dysfunction caused by trauma, vascular lesions, etc. are not received in time.
Because the quality of the night erection of the patients decreased at this time, some patients even disappeared at night erections.
At this time, because the tissue cells of cavernosum are in a state of hypoxia for a long time, it will lead to cell apoptosis and fibrosis of the cavernosum , and the elasticity of the white membrane will also become worse, and atrophy will follow.
Speaking of this, some people may ask: has such a big change before and after surgery, can't it be the problem of the surgeon? ?
In fact, unless the surgeon is not experienced enough, such as the doctor's measurement of the length of the cavernosum during the operation, or the displacement occurs without fixing the prosthesis, it is difficult to have a misunderstanding of 2 or 3 cm.
Why is this?
It turns out that although the artificial sponge used in the surgery currently only has several fixed lengths such as 10, 12, 14, 15, 16, 18, 21 cm, etc., but the artificial sponge is also equipped with the back end extension body with lengths of 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 cm.
Therefore, theoretically, the length error of patients before and after surgery should be at most about 0.5 cm.
