Injury of iliac vessels is one of the most disastrous complications of penile prosthesis implantation. There are no detailed descriptions of such cases in world literature. In this article, we present the clinical case of injury to the external iliac vein during the implantation of a three-piece penile prosthesis with particular emphasis on the consequences of such complication in the postoperative period. The article comprises a brief review of the literature on the methods of ectopic placement of the penile prosthesis reservoir.
