Out with the old, in with the new? A retrospective comparison of malleable erectile implants in phalloplasty
The ZSI FtM 100 appears more prone to mechanical failure than conventional models but is associated with a lower overall incidence of complications. It also demonstrates a better lifespan in phalloplasty, with a longer complication-free survival. These findings must be interpreted with caution given the retrospective design and small sample size of this study.
