Abstract
An inflatable penile prosthesis includes a fluid reservoir for holding fluid, an inflatable member, and a pump assembly for transferring fluid between the fluid reservoir and the inflatable member. The pump assembly includes a pump bulb, a valve block, and valves in the valve block. The valves include a control valve configured to move in a passageway formed within the valve block 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 and the passageway are configured to form a seal that blocks fluid flow from the from a first side to a second side of the control valve, but to allow the seal to break when fluid pressure on the control valve is high, so as to relieve a high-pressure condition.
