He subsequently developed a dorsal penile plaque with mild dorsal curvature. Patient 5: a 62-year-old man with neurogenic impotence following a radical prostatectomy developed penile ecchymoses acutely following placement of a smaller constriction ring. Patient 4: a 65-year-old man developed Peyronie's disease after 4 years of correct VED use. This mass was not present in the flaccid state and was seen only with VED use. Patient 3: a 75-year-old diabetic man who enjoyed satisfactory erections with a VED for 14 months developed a 3 x 3-cm penile cystic mass located on the proximal right side of the penile shaft. Patient 2: a 76-year-old diabetic man who used a VED correctly for 3 months developed severe urethral bleeding. Patient 1: a 38-year-old diabetic man with significant peripheral neuropathy and an 8-year history of erectile dysfunction developed penile skin necrosis at the ring site after leaving the penile ring on for an excessive length of time (6 hours). We report on 5 patients who developed unusual complications associated with VED use, including two previously unreported complications of urethral bleeding and capture of scrotal tunica within the penile shaft. When used correctly, VEDs carry low morbidity and few recognized complications. My girlfriend was as pleased with the results as I was.The vacuum erection device (VED) is usually well tolerated and very effective for patients with erectile dysfunction. Joe Young from Grapevine, TX United States Kenneth Hudgins from Yorktown, VA United StatesĮasy to use but does not let me keep erection very long ![]() But I’m sure in the end, everything will work as originally designed. It is taking some practice to allow the penis to get used to filling the chambers with blood again. Pump seems well made, definitely does the job it is designed to do.
