Excision and Grafting with Implant - Length

Hey all!

I’m scheduled for E&G and an Implant next month. Due to Peyronie’s, I have about a 70’ bend. I have definitely lost some length, which Dr Karpman wasn’t very optimistic about getting it back with the implant. I didn’t think about it at the time, so I’ll ask you…

If the plaque is removed and grafted (with cadaver tissue) why can’t lost length be recaptured? It would seem to me that replacing hard plaque with soft tissue would allow for renewed length.

Any info would be appreciated and helpful.

Jim

Did Dr Karpman say he planned to remove the plaque and graft it with cadaver tissue?

If you get a usable working dick quit fixating on the length .. too many get all hung up on that and lose sight of the prize which is to get back into the gave of being able to have sex again ..

@wolfpacker - Yes, he plans to perform excision and grafting with cadaver tissue.

@easymony - I'm not really fixating on length. Yes, I will be incredibly satisfied just to be straight enough to have sex, however, I have always been larger than average, so I was just curious. It was more of a medical question....the way my small brain works, removing the plaque and replacing that area with soft tissue shouldn't restrict length.
