How much does artificial cavernous body implant cost?

The cost of artificial cavernous body implantation surgery is generally between 30,000 yuan and 80,000 yuan. The actual cost is affected by factors such as surgical method, hospital grade, regional differences, postoperative care, and treatment of complications.

1. Surgical method:

Artificial cavernous body implants are divided into two types: semi-hard prosthetic implants and expandable prosthetic implants. The price of semi-rigid prostheses is lower, about 30,000 to 50,000 yuan, but the comfort is poor. ； Inflatable prostheses are more expensive, about 60,000 to 80,000 yuan, and are better at simulating natural erections. The choice of surgical method directly affects the material cost and surgical difficulty.

2. Hospital level:

The charges in tertiary hospitals are usually higher than those in secondary hospitals, and the difference can reach 10,000 to 20,000 yuan. High-end private medical institutions may charge higher fees but include better post-operative services. It is recommended to choose a regular medical institution with male reproductive surgery qualifications to avoid surgical risks caused by low-price attraction.

3. Regional differences:

Surgery costs in first-tier cities are generally 20%-30% higher than in second- and third-tier cities. Medical costs are higher in the eastern coastal areas and relatively lower in the central and western regions. There are also regional differences in medical insurance reimbursement policies. In some areas, severe erectile dysfunction is classified as a special disease and partial reimbursement is provided.

4. Postoperative care:

Postoperative review and medication maintenance are required, and the average annual nursing cost is about 2,000-5,000 yuan. Including anti-infection treatment, prosthetic function adjustment, psychological counseling, etc. If complications such as mechanical failure of the prosthesis or infection occur, an additional repair cost of 10,000 to 30,000 yuan may be incurred.

5. Treatment of complications:

About 5%-10% of patients may experience complications such as prosthesis migration, infection, or mechanical failure. The treatment cost for mild infection is about 5,000 yuan. For severe infection, the prosthesis needs to be removed and treated with anti-infection, and the cost may increase to more than 20,000 yuan. Thorough preoperative evaluation reduces the risk of complications.

After artificial cavernous body implantation, you need to maintain moderate exercise, such as walking for 30 minutes a day to promote blood circulation.； It is recommended to increase the intake of high-quality protein and zinc, and eat oysters, nuts and other foods in moderation. ； Avoid strenuous exercise and long rides ； Perform regular prosthetic function checks. Sexual life should be avoided for 3 months after surgery, and sexual activities should be gradually resumed after 6 months according to the recovery situation. Maintaining a good attitude and cooperating with psychological counseling when necessary can help improve the effect of surgery and quality of life. Before choosing surgery, it is recommended to fully understand the advantages and disadvantages of different prosthesis types and communicate with the attending doctor in detail about the expected results.
