Patent ID: 8911350

Claim:
An implantable penile prosthetic device, comprising: a column formed of resilient material having proximal and distal ends, and a central axis extending from the proximal end to the distal end, the proximal and distal ends having exterior surfaces that extend across the central axis; and multiple malleable cores arranged inside the column; wherein: each malleable core is entirely enclosed within the column and each malleable core comprises a bundle of wires; each malleable core is separated from neighboring malleable cores by gaps; the resilient material fills the gaps and extends between each of the malleable cores and the central axis such that each malleable core is displaced from the central axis; the prosthetic device is sized and shaped to be entirely implanted within a penis of a user; and the prosthetic device is able to be bent by the user into multiple positions including a straight position, wherein the prosthetic device is sufficiently rigid to remain in the straight position during intromission, and is sufficiently malleable to maintain bent positions and not spring back to the straight position.
