ABSTRACT:
The penile prosthesis includes proximal and distal end portions with an intermediate, normally flexible main body portion. The main body portion includes an array of segments that, although individually pivotable with respect to each other, can be rendered into a rigid unit by engagement with interfering members. The interfering members prevent flexion of the prosthesis to enable the prosthesis to support the penis in a erectile condition. The prosthesis is manually manipulable to establish the penis in an erectile condition or a flaccid condition as desired.
