First experiences with an AMS penile prosthesis which can hydraulically fill and empty is reported. Advantage of this prosthesis: Physiologic imitation of erection and handling this method. The best cosmetic solution of all previous types of penile prosthesis. Disadvantage: A relatively complicated system and thus liable to defects. However, repairing is, in any case, easily done. After 3 years of use, experience is showing that this method turned out to be a cosmetically and functionally satisfying operative procedure.
