He measured the phalloplasty and picked-up the adequate size. The placement of the prosthesis and its attachment to the pubis (suture of the fixation plate on the bone periost) were performed without difficulty. At all time during the surgery, thorough antiseptic measures and surgical techniques were implemented to prevent infection. The prosthesis was cleansed during the procedure with antibiotics as specified in the protocol.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph -->After several tests inflating and deflating the prosthesis\u2014producing erections of good quality\u2014Dr. Lesta closed the incision.
