AMS ambicor penile implant is manufactured by Boston Scientific which is a leading healthcare research organization manufacturing innovative medical products.
AMS Ambicor is a 2 piece penile implant, which means that it has two components. These components are two cylinders connected with a pump. The cylinders are prefilled with fluid, and hence there is no need for the reservoir to store fluid as in a 3 piece penile implant.
The cylinders are used in pairs ( just like silicone rods in semi rigid implants) and are placed in the corpus cavernosa. The pump is placed in the scrotum and is connected with cylinders pre-filled with fluid. As soon as the patient presses the pump, the fluid from the built in small reservoir inside the cylinders, causes the cylinders to inflate and hence the patient gets a hard erection. The patient can now have an uninterrupted sexual intercourse of desired duration. When the sexual activity is over and the erection is no longer required, the patient can bend the shaft of the penis. This causes the fluid from the penis to move back to the reservoir and hence returning back to the flaccid state.
The AMS ambicor also has a feature of self inflation which can trigger the penis to get erected.
The 2 piece penile implant is a less complex device as compared to 3-piece AMS 700 penile implant, because of less mechanical components required. Hence there are less chances of mechanical failure in AMS Ambicor 2-piece penile implant as compared to the three piece counterparts like AMS 700, Coloplast Titan etc.
The AMS Ambicor is one of the most reliable 2 piece penile implants available in the world and is manufactured by Boston Scientific which focuses a lot on product quality and innovation. The cost of the AMS Ambicor penile implant surgery depends on the experience of the penile surgeon as well as the hospital. The cost ranges from 9500 USD to 10500 USD.
The surgery is done by making a very small incision in the scrotum through which all the components of the implant are inserted and put in place. The surgery lasts for around 1 hour to 90 minutes and is performed under anaesthesia. The patient is required to stay at the hospital for 2 days, and stay in nearby the hotel for 2 more days for follow-up. There can be some pain and soreness at the surgical site, but that will be healed soon. In 3-4 days the patient is fit to carry on with day to day activities with precaution. The patient can engage in normal sexual activity in around 4 to 6 week’s time.

The AMS ambicor penile prosthesis is undoubtedly a great 2 piece inflatable penile implant, but a few factors decide if it is the best implant for you. The choice of implant depends on a lot of factors like :-
Budget of the patient - The AMS Ambicor is one of the most trusted 2 piece inflatable penile implants available in the world. The cost is a bit on the higher side as compared to semi rigid or malleable implants, but at the same time lesser than the 3 piece penile implants like AMS 700 LGX. So if you want an inflatable penile implant only, and budget is a concern for you, AMS Ambicor is the implant you can go for.
Concealment of the Implant - The AMS AMbicor inflatable penile implant can be more easily concealed as compared to the semi rigid penile implants. So if concealment is a major concern for you, AMS Ambicor is a good implant for you. Also when compared to AMS 700 LGX, AMS Ambicor retains some stiffness(30%) even after deflation, whereas AMS 700 becomes almost flaccid after deflation. So you can better decide which implant to go for.
Ease of use - The AMS Ambicor is very easy to operate and use. A gentle push of a pump erects the penis, and a slight bend of the penis shaft returns the erected penis to a flaccid state.
Warranty & Life - The ams ambicor inflatable prosthesis comes with an international warranty for mechanical failure of the components. The device is a high quality one and generally works fine for years. If the device stops working because of a mechanical issue, the company replaces the implant.
Natural Behaviour - If your goal is to have a sexual intercouse which is as close to natural as possible, then AMS ambicor inflatable penile prosthesis are better poised than semi rigid penile implants. The inflatable implants inflate and deflate the penis with fluid, just like it happens in a person with no erectile dysfunction and hence the best implants for ED cure.
None of the penile implants are covered by Insurance in India, just like cosmetic surgeries. However, you can still check with your Insurer if they assist with penile implants.
Yes, the AMS Ambicor penile implant comes with an international warranty for mechanical failure of the components. The device is a high quality one and generally works fine for years. If the device stops working because of a mechanical issue, the company replaces the implant. So if you want to safeguard your investment, AMS Ambicor is the best implant for you.
AMS Ambicor penile implant is a mechanical device and if used properly, it can last a long time.Once placed by a skilled penile implant surgeon, the AMS Ambicor implants have a very long life because of lesser components involved in comparison to a 3 piece penile implant. It’s very difficult to define that in years but there are patients who are still using it with satisfaction even after 15-16 years after implantation.
No, AMS Ambicor doesn’t expand in length and girth. If you need an expansion in length and girth, you should consider getting a AMS 700 LGX whose cylinders are designed to expand in girth and length of up to 25%.
