The Titan Touch pump was launched by the Minneapolis-based medical device company, Coloplast; and is one of the latest enhancements to the Titan family of Inflatable Penile Prostheses (IPPs) for men who seek a solution beyond pills and injections. These products are hydraulic systems that are surgically implanted to treat the effects of ED. The Titan Touch pump makes it easier for men to simply and effectively control the device.

“The new Titan Touch implant pump successfully maintains a ‘one touch deflation’ system,” states Paul Perito, MD. “The initial feedback is positive and we believe the Titan Touch will be a milestone product for penile implant patients.”
