  • Prosthesis with bendable central region
    Patent number: 10070955
    Abstract: A prosthetic device including a column of resilient material that has a central region between the proximal and distal ends. The central region has a reduced diameter relative to the proximal and distal ends. Discs protrude from the central region.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 17, 2008
    Date of Patent: September 11, 2018
    Assignee: Boston Scientific Scimed, Inc.
    Inventors: Stephanie A. George, Sara Elizabeth Nelson, Randall P. Rowland, Charles C. Kuyava
  • Malleable prosthesis with enhanced concealability
    Patent number: 9517133
    Abstract: A malleable penile prosthetic device for implantation within a penis of a user includes a columnar body and a plurality of malleable cores within the columnar body. The columnar body has a proximal end, a distal end, and a central axis extending from the proximal end to the distal end. Each of the plurality of malleable cores extends along the central axis, is angularly displaced about the central axis from neighboring malleable cores, and includes a bundle of wires surrounded by a sleeve.

  • Prosthesis with bladder that adjusts girth
    Patent number: 7918782
    Abstract: A prosthetic device comprises a column formed of resilient material and having a proximal end and a distal end. The prosthetic device comprises a bladder having a liquid cavity at the distal end. The bladder is inflatable and deflatable to increase and decrease a girth at the distal end of the prosthetic device. The prosthetic device comprises a liquid supply system that couples along the column to the bladder for selectively controlling liquid flow to the bladder to increase and decrease the girth.
