Association between surgeon procedure volume and reoperation rates for penile prosthesis implantation
In a nationally representative Medicare cohort, PP reoperation rates were low (6.3%), with mechanical complications accounting for 41% of reoperations (2.6% of the cohort). Higher-volume surgeons had lower reoperation rates, but outcomes remained acceptable across all volume levels, reinforcing the overall safety of the procedure.
