The AMS penile implant featuring LGX cylinders
After displaying the various models, many of my patients will favor the AMS 700 with LGX cylinders and other features described below
Durability
LGX cylinders are as durable as the CX, the most popular IPP cylinder in the world.²
Controlled Expansion
Designed to allow for up to 15-20% elongation, depending on patient’s anatomy.²
Unrivaled Technology
The only penile implant that provides controlled length girth expansion.
Three more reasons to choose LGX:
- Momentary Squeeze Pump with Lock-out Valve and Deflation Button
- InhibiZone® creates a Zone of Inhibition, effective against the bacteria commonly associated with IPP infections³
- Parylene—coded reservoir designed to mitigate cylinder fatigue and improve reservoir durability
This product is not for men with active urinary infections or active skin infections in the region of surgery; with known sensitivity to silicone or the antibiotic rifampin or tetracyclines; with lupus erythematosus; taking warfarin, thionamides, isoniazid and halothane; or with renal disease. Implanting a penile prosthesis is likely to damage or destroy any remaining natural ability to have an erection.
