According to an aspect, an inflatable penile prosthesis includes a fluid reservoir configured to hold fluid, an inflatable member, and a pump assembly configured to transfer the fluid between the fluid reservoir and the inflatable member. The pump assembly includes a valve body, a pump bulb, and a deflation mode actuator. The valve body includes a bi-directional valve configured to move from an inflation position to a deflation position in response to an activation of the deflation mode actuator. The bi-directional valve in the inflation position is configured to open a fluid passageway in the valve body to transfer fluid from the pump bulb to the inflatable member. The bi-directional valve in the deflation position is configured to open a fluid passageway in the valve body to transfer fluid from the inflatable member to the fluid reservoir that bypasses the pump bulb.

An inflatable penile prosthesis can comprise a reservoir, an inflatable member, and a pump assembly. The pump assembly can include at least one valve comprising an entry tube interface configured to attach to the entry tube and defining an entry passageway, an entry portion adjacent to the entry tube interface, a middle portion adjacent to the entry portion, an exit portion adjacent to the middle portion, the exit portion being narrower than the middle portion, the exit portion defining an exit portion passageway and comprising multiple guides extending toward a longitudinal exit axis, the multiple guides being symmetrical about the longitudinal exit axis, the exit tube interface adjacent to the exit portion, and a poppet disposed inside the chamber, the poppet being biased to rest against the entry portion.

The invention relates to a method for draining a medical device (1) adapted to be implanted in a human or animal body, said medical device comprising a housing (11) that encloses a fluid reservoir (13), and a fluid outlet (12) that forms a fluid connection between the reservoir and a volume outside the housing, the method involving: —providing the device in packaging comprising a tank (2), the housing being held in the tank in a position in which the reservoir is located between the bottom of the tank and the fluid outlet; —filling the tank (2) with a biocompatible fluid such that a zone of the packaging which lies outside the medical device and is in fluid connection with the fluid outlet of the tank is immersed in the fluid; —draining the medical device and filling the reservoir (13) with the biocompatible fluid.

A device for remodeling a penis, comprising a generally cylindrical hollow assembly having a lumen extending between proximal and distal ends, the distal end being in communication with the lumen to facilitate insertion of the penis into the lumen, the generally cylindrical structure having an interior surface facing the lumen and an exterior surface facing away from the lumen, a longitudinal direction and a transverse direction, the transverse direction being orthogonal to the longitudinal direction, the generally cylindrical assembly adapted to snugly and resiliently grip the penis, and includes an elastic fabric with one or more regions reinforced with a plastically deformable member.

A surgically implanted occluding assembly comprises an implant body having a longitudinally split generally “C”-shaped cross-section tube circumscribing an anatomical lumen. In one embodiment, the surgically implanted occluding assembly is a male continence device selectively occluding a urethra. In some embodiments an occluding magnet is rigidly affixed with the implant body, and an external selective occlusion control assembly is used to selectively activate the surgically implanted occluding assembly. The external assembly has a magnet, and body supporting the magnet. The external selective occlusion control assembly is configured to be selectively placed and retained adjacent to the surgically implanted occluding assembly. In some embodiments, a bi-stable spring longer than and spanning the longitudinal split in the implant body has a first stable anatomical lumen occluding position curved into an interior of the longitudinal split, and a second stable anatomical lumen open position curved outward exterior of the longitudinally split tube.

According to an aspect, an implantable device for penile construction includes a penile implant having a distal portion and a proximal portion. The distal portion includes a shaft portion configured to be disposed in a neophallus. The proximal portion defines a first strut and a second strut, and the proximal portion is configured to be attached to a pelvis structure.

A prosthesis is implanted subcutaneously within a human penis, the prosthesis forming sides of an elongated longitudinal modified cylindrical shape, the sides hinged along a common abutment therebetween. A sheath is mounted around the prosthesis' wall and a net sheeting is imbedded under the surface of the prosthesis' wall providing a means to secure the sides; restraining them to further secure a corpora cavernosa around the prosthesis is placed. When the penis is erect it grows in girth thereby causing the sides to diverge, forcing a press-rib against a deep dorsal vein of the penis, which results in restricting blood flow and maintaining erectile rigidity and duration.
