Ireland's Bionic Penises Surge
from Cork News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
Thirteen Irish men got bionic penises last year—medical marvels called penile prostheses designed to restore sexual function. Surgeons implanted inflatable systems, and demand jumped 60% over last year. Costs? Up to €34,000 per procedure, totaling hundreds of thousands across the board. Most patients—86%—were thrilled with results, but not everyone sailed smoothly: 13 needed revisions due to device failure, infection, or mechanical issues. And remember, these stats only reflect public hospitals—private clinics could be adding to the numbers. Doctors only approve the surgery when it’s medically necessary.
