It was reported that the patient experienced a hard time pumping and inflatable penile prosthesis (ipp).A surgical procedure was performed in which the existing pump was removed and replaced with a new one.The patient did not experience any further complications.It was further reported that the patient was having difficulty inflating the device due to a capsule that formed around the pump.The device also presented a "sticky pump" as it would pump once or twice and then remained flat which caused the physician and patient to be unhappy with the outcome, leading to the procedure.The onset of the symptoms was shortly after ipp implantation.The patient was said to be good after the procedure.No more information available at the moment.Should additional information become available, it will be provided.
