Zusammenfassung:A penile prosthesis (20) kit of parts includes an inflatable implant (22), a reservoir (24) adapted to contain a volume of liquid, a pump (26), tubing (28) and tubing connectors provided for attachment of the inflatable implant and the reservoir to the pump, and instructions for use provided for implantation and use of the pump. The pump has a rotary valve located in a first flow path entering into the pump and in a second flow path exiting from the pump. When implanted, the rotary valve is constrained to rotate in only one direction to move a portion of the volume of the liquid from the reservoir through the first flow path and through the second flow path into the inflatable implant.
