Penile Implant Patient Story w Dr LeRoy Jones | Urology San Antonio

www.urologysanantonio.com | www.edtreatmentsanantonio.com As a single parent, when Kirby found out he had prostate cancer, his main concern was for his daughter and continuing to be there for her. Despite the potential sexual side effects, he chose to undergo a robotic prostatectomy to remove the cancer. Initially, while his body and nerves healed from surgery, Kirby did penile rehabilitation therapy to speed the restoration of his erections. He took oral medications like Viagra and also used a penis pump (vacuum erection device) and penile injections, all in an effort to increase blood flow to the area and promote healing. Many months later, Kirby remained cancer free, but despite the penile rehabilitation therapy, his body had not fully recovered its erectile function, so Kirby scheduled a consultation with Dr. LeRoy Jones, a prosthetic urologist, to discuss a penile implant. Kirby was pragmatic about his options and decided that the best way to regain the sexual function he desired was to have the penile implant surgery. The outpatient operation took 30 to 40 minutes. Kirby returned home the same evening and returned to work within a week. Six weeks after surgery, he was able to use the penile prosthesis. Kirby is very satisfied with the implant. He is so pleased with the outcome that he routinely makes himself available to talk to other prostate cancer patients about his experience with the different erectile dysfunction treatment options. He stresses that the most important thing is to treat the prostate cancer, and that if sexual side effects do occur, those can be treated.
