Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to an improved rear tip and rear tip extender where the rear tip securely attaches to a rear tip extender, even when slippery, and can avoid creating an irritating discontinuity in the profile. In a first aspect, the disclosure is directed to a penile implant having a cylinder with a rear tip. The rear tip includes a section having a generally smooth profile and a section having a connector end. A rear tip extender is adapted to fit over the section having the connector end. The rear tip extender includes a base, wherein the base fits over the rear tip at an interface. The rear tip is adapted to receive the rear tip extender with a ring in groove attachment. The base is aligned with the generally smooth profile of the rear tip without a protuberance at the interface. In a second aspect, the disclosure is directed to a penile implant including a cylinder having a rear tip. The cylinder includes a hydrophilic coating adapted to receive an antimicrobial solution.
