A penile implant is a surgical device used to treat erectile dysfunction (ED) in men who no longer respond to oral medications or other conventional treatments. The implant, which comes in two types - semi-rigid and inflatable - replaces the penis's natural ability to become erect. In the case of an inflatable implant, a reservoir is placed in the body, and the penis is filled with saline when desired for intercourse.

Penile implant surgery is a solution for men experiencing erectile dysfunction. In Greece, this procedure involves replacing damaged or removed penile tissue with an artificial device. The procedure takes around 1-2 hours.
Top medical centers include Hygeia and Papanicolaou Hospitals. Patients may need to stay for a few days post-surgery.
