How many types of Testicular Implants are currently available?
There are three types of implants currently available. However, only one, the Mentor saline-filled testicular implant has received approval from the FDA for implantation as a testicular prosthesis. The other two, Silimed’s Silicone Elastomer device and Mentor’s Soft-Solid Device are available for implantation only as part of a research protocol for which I am a Principal Investigator.
