Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
An implantable device for penile construction includes an anchor plate configured to be coupled to a pelvic bone of a patient, where the anchor plate has an attachment interface configured to be coupled to a penile prosthesis after the anchor plate is coupled to the pelvic bone.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1 . An implantable device for penile construction, the implantable device comprising: a penile prosthesis having a distal end portion and a proximal end portion, the proximal end portion defining an attachment interface; an anchor plate configured to be coupled to a pelvic bone of a patient, the anchor plate having an attachment interface configured to be coupled to the attachment interface of the penile prosthesis, the anchor plate having a first portion, a second portion, and a central portion disposed between the first portion and the second portion such that a central axis of the anchor plate extends through the central portion at a location equidistant from the first portion and the second portion, the first portion being formed of a first material, the central portion being formed of a second material, the second material being more flexible than the first material, the anchor plate having a side edge extending from a first corner portion to a second corner portion, the side edge being curved from the first corner portion to the second corner portion such that a midportion of the side edge between the first corner portion and the second corner portion is disposed closer to the central axis of the anchor plate than the first corner portion is disposed to the central axis of the anchor plate and the midportion of the side edge between the first corner portion and the second corner portion is disposed closer to the central axis of the anchor plate than the second corner portion is disposed to the central axis of the anchor plate. 2 . The implantable device of claim 1 , wherein the attachment interface of the penile prosthesis defines a protrusion having a proximal tip and a reduced portion, the attachment interface of the anchor plate defining an opening. 3 . The implantable device of claim 1 , wherein the attachment interface of the anchor plate is a first attachment interface, the anchor plate including a second attachment interface, the penile prosthesis includes a first inflatable cylinder and a second inflatable cylinder, the first inflatable cylinder configured to be coupled to the first attachment interface, the second inflatable cylinder configured to be coupled to the second attachment interface. 4 . The implantable device of claim 1 , wherein the first portion of the anchor plate defines a through hole configured to receive a bone screw. 5 . The implantable device of claim 1 , wherein the penile prosthesis includes an adjustable member configured to increase over time to assist with a creation of a neophallus. 6 . The implantable device of claim 1 , wherein the penile prosthesis includes a penile prosthesis originally designed for erectile dysfunction. 7 . The implantable device of claim 1 , wherein the penile prosthesis includes a neophallus implant. 8 . The implantable device of claim 1 , wherein the anchor plate includes a first anchor member and a second anchor member. 9 . The implantable device of claim 1 , wherein the penile prosthesis includes an elongated penile shaft defining a lumen. 10 . The implantable device of claim 1 , wherein the penile prosthesis includes an inflatable cylinder.
