Titan® Inflatable Penile Prosthesis Brief Statement
3-Piece Inflatable Penile Implant with HydroVANTAGE™ Hydrophilic Coating
Indications: The Titan, Titan OTR and Titan Touch Inflatable Penile Prosthesis is indicated for male patients suffering from erectile dysfunction (impotence) who are candidates for implantation of a penile prosthesis.
Contraindications: The Titan, Titan OTR and Titan Touch Inflatable Penile Prosthesis is contraindicated in patients with an active infection present anywhere in the body, especially urinary tract or genital infection; with a documented sensitivity to silicone; with unresolved problems affecting urination, such as an elevated residual urine volume secondary to bladder  outlet obstruction or neurogenic bladder; or, unwilling to undergo any further surgery for device revision.
Warnings: Implantation of the device may make latent natural erections, as well as other interventional treatment  options, impossible. 
Men with diabetes or spinal cord injuries, as well as immunocompromised patients, may have an increased risk of infection associated with a prosthesis. 
Failure to evaluate and promptly treat erosion may result in a substantial worsening of the condition, leading to infection  and loss of tissue. 
Implantation of a penile prosthesis may result in penile shortening, curvature or scarring. 
Pre-existing abdominal or penile scarring or contracture may make surgical implantation more complicated or impractical.
Precautions: Surgeons implanting penile prostheses should be familiar with the currently available techniques for measuring the patient, determining implant size, and performing the surgery.
Removal of an implanted prosthesis without timely reimplantation of a new prosthesis may complicate subsequent reimplantation or may make it impossible.
Potential Complications: Potential complications include scrotal swelling, auto-inflation, discomfort, angulation/curvature, edema, device malfunction, chronic pain, difficulty with ejaculation, transient urinary retention.
