Upon receipt of this inflatable penile prosthesis (ipp) at our quality assurance laboratory, the components underwent a thorough analysis.Under a microscope, both cylinders had wear at a fold in the middle of each cylinder.The kink resistant tubing (krt) of both cylinders was trimmed down the window quick connect (wqc) and the tubing was not returned for analysis.Under a microscope, the pump krt was worn to the filament.Based on the information available and analysis results, the reported device mechanical issue and hole in the tubing were unable to be confirmed; therefore, the conclusion code of cause not established has been chosen.
