ABSTRACT:
A penile erectile system which is adapted to be surgically implanted in man for the treatment of erectile impotence includes an elongated penile implant adapted to be implanted in the corpus cavernosum of a penis, said member including a stem at one end, a tip at the other end, first and second chambers axially positioned between the stem and tip, said first chamber having a resilient non-collapsible wall and the second chamber having a flexible non-distensible wall. Both of the chambers are normally substantially filled with fluid and are connected by a passage closed by a valve which normally permits fluid to only flow from the first to the second chamber but which can serve as a relief valve when the pressure in the second chamber exceeds a predetermined pressure.
