NEW YORK, June 13 /PRNewswire/ -- We have entered an era when every male
is expected to obtain a picture perfect erection. Unfortunately, there
remains a significant number of men who do not respond to any of the recent
wonder drugs that at last count include Viagra, Cialis and Levitra. Imagine
the frustration of these men and their significant others who feel that they
are being left behind despite the miracles of modern medicine. Fortunately,
there is a solution for these men with the most severe form of erectile
dysfunction. Jonathan Lazare, M.D., a board-certified urologist in Manhattan,
is performing a new operation for erectile dysfunction at the New York
Hospital-Cornell Medical Center. The operation involves the placement of a
technically advanced implant into the penis of men who are impotent.
Consequently, these patients can enjoy sex to the same extent as their friends
who respond to Viagra.
According to Dr. Lazare, "The operation instantly transforms a sexual
cripple into a sexual superman. The level of satisfaction achieved by this
operation exceeds that of all the other treatment modalities". Dr. Lazare
also points out the operation is not for everyone and that patients should
consider surgery only after medical treatments fail.
The innovation regarding this prosthesis involves the application of a
coating of antibiotics to the surface of the device. These antibiotics are
slowly released over the ensuing six weeks following the operation. Infection
of the implant is the most significant potential complication of the
procedure. Studies have shown that the antibiotic coating significantly
reduces the risk of infection. This is especially important for patients with
diabetes who are prone to erectile dysfunction and who are also at increased
risk for infection. The device is manufactured by American Medical Systems.
The implant is a 3-piece device that is inserted via a small incision in
the scrotum. By compressing a pump located within the scrotum, the patient is
able to make the penis rigid during sexual activity and flaccid during sexual
inactivity. Penile sensation and orgasm are completely normal during sexual
intercourse.

Park Avenue, New York, NY 10128. His number is 212-426-0400. Questions can
