IN THE UNITED STATES PATENT AND TRADEMARK OFFICE IMPLANTABLE SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR AUGMENTING PENILE ERECTION ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A method and system for augmenting penile erection in a human male is disclosed. An inflatable cuff is placed circumferentially around the corpora cavernosa, the deep dorsal vein, and the cavernous veins, adjacent to the hilum of a penis. Selective compression of the cuff will function to restrict venous drainage to augment penile erection. The cuff is adapted to have opposite ends thereof attached together and at least one inflatable vesicle is formed on the inner side of the cuff. A pump, including an attendant control system, is sized for implantation in a scrotum whereby the pump can be selectively squeezed to inflate and fluid pressurize the vesicle to compress the cuff around the penis. A control circuit, connected between the cuff and the pump, functions to automatically deflate the cuff after a predetermined period of time has elapsed.
