The chart records preoperative penile dimensions as penile length and circumference both relaxed and stretched, both in a de-tumescent and erect state, before after intra-operative injection of 1cc Prostaglandin E1 respectively, to enhance pharmacological tumescence.~The implantation of the penile implant will resume with the cavernosal sparing technique.~After the penile prosthesis has been implanted, penile length and girth will be measured and the penile implant dimensions will be recorded in the chart.~The PIMP chart will assist the surgeon in assuring he sized the penis most adequately with the implant by taking the penile dimensions ( Length and Circumference). To assure that the penis was not oversized with the implant, the post-operative penile length should not exceed the pre-operative penile tumescent stretched length.~To assure that the penis was not undersized, the postoperative penile length should not be less than the pre-operative tumescent non-stretched penile length..~The chart will also document the patients' penile dimensions pre and post operatively and could be used as an objective tool for post-operative patient counseling and reassurance about the results of the penile implant surgery.
This is a chart of penile size measurements where penile length and width are recorded intra-operatively prior to penile prosthesis implantation to guide the surgeon to the correct and adequate post-operative penile size
