Abstract:
1. A penis erection stimulation system, comprising at least one infusion needle disposed at least partly within at least one housing with a tip end of the at least one infusion needle arranged for penetrating an outer wall of the at least one housing in two or more different penetration areas the at least one housing being adapted for implantation inside a patient's body, at least one reservoir adapted for implantation inside the patient's body in fluid connection with the at least one infusion needle to supply to the infusion needle a substance to be injected into the patient's body, at least one pump adapted for implantation inside the patient's body to advance the substance from the reservoir to the at least one infusion needle, and at least one drive unit adapted for implantation inside the patient's body, the at least one drive unit being coupled to the at least one infusion needle and arranged at least for advancing and retracting a tip end of the at least one infusion needle so that the at least one infusion needle penetrates, upon advancement of the tip end or ends thereof, at least two of said different penetration areas so as to allow for stimulation of penis erection by injecting the substance through said at least two different penetration areas via the at least one infusion needle, wherein the tip end of the at least one infusion needle, when penetrating the housing's outer wall, is adapted to penetrate into at least one of: the left and right corpus cavernosum, the two deep arteries of the right and left corpus cavernosum, into muscle tissue regulating blood flow to the patient's left and right corpus cavernosum, and into another kind of tissue in close proximity to the patient's left and right corpus cavernosum, allowing stimulation of erection of the two corpora cavernosa, wherein the system is adapted such that the at least one infusion needle penetrates said at least two different penetration areas upon a single command or single action from the patient, and wherein the system comprises a control unit configured to control the drive unit, to inject the substance through the at least two penetration areas after a single command or single action from the patient.
