Abstract: A penile prosthesis includes a penile prosthetic; a pump; a reservoir; first tubing adapted to couple the penile prosthetic to the pump; second tubing adapted to couple the reservoir to the pump; and a plate adapted to couple with the penile prosthetic. The plate is implantable and adapted to orient the penile prosthetic in an anatomically natal penis position that is adapted for penetrative intercourse.

Abstract: A pump is connected between penile cylinder(s) and a reservoir of a prosthesis. A squeezing pressure applied to the penile cylinder moves a first liquid volume out of the cylinder and into a first chamber of the pump, which displaces a piston inside of the pump. Displacement of the piston creates a vacuum space (a second chamber) between the piston and the housing of the pump, and a second liquid volume is drawn out of the reservoir and into the vacuum space. A return spring pushes the piston back to its starting position, which pushes both the first liquid volume and the second liquid volume out of the pump and into the penile cylinders.
