Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	An inflatable penile prosthesis (100) includes a fluid reservoir (102) configured to hold fluid, an inflatable member (104), and a pump assembly (106) configured to transfer fluid between the fluid reservoir and the inflatable member. The pump assembly includes a pump bulb (108), a valve assembly comprising a housing and valve block (110), a plurality of valves disposed within the valve block, a first fluid port (114) in fluid communication with the fluid reservoir, and a second fluid port (115) in fluid communication with the inflatable member. The plurality of valves includes a control valve (420) configured to move between an inflation position and a deflation position to control the flow of fluid within the valve block and the transfer of fluid between the fluid reservoir and the inflatable member. The control valve comprises a first movable member (422) received in the fluid passageway and a second movable member (430) coupled to the housing and engaged with the first movable member.
