ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to an improved erection system (30) for implanting in a male (10). The erection system (30) includes first and second inflatable cylinders (32) and (34) for positioning within first and second corpora cavernosa regions (24) of the male's penis (16). A first valve (48) is mounted in the first cylinder (32) to direct and maintain fluid in the first cyclinder and release fluid therefrom. A secon valve (48) is mounted in the second cylinder (34) to direct and maintain fluid in the second cylinder and release fluid therefrom. A pump (40) is provided to pump fluid from a reservoir (38) to the first and second valves (48) to inflate the first and second cylinders (32) and (34) and cause an erection of the male's penis (16) when the valves (48) are opened. After sufficient fluid (48) is pumped into the cylinders (32) and (34) the erection is maintained by closing the valves (48). The penis (16) can thereafter be relaxed by again opening the valves (48).
