It is in my opinion purely a marketing profit/loss situation. If these sheets were to be used for the penis ONLY, the demand is minimum compared to the demand of regular liquid PMMA which is used by hundreds of Dr's and in many places in the body, so its cost is down. The PMMA sheets cost vs profit may never have justified the cost of R&D and a another manufacturing machines and processes to be added next to the regular liquid PMMA...me thinks Live Long and Prosper!

I'm thinking that may be the real issue. The sheet of PMMA idea in my mind would be perfect. No lumps or irregularities. The PMMA is held in place initially by its "sheet/carrier" and as it slowly absorbs and collagen formation kicks in you have a very even distribution of PMMA and subsequent collagen growth. The reason this probably isn't or won't be happening is a manufacturing/cost issue. Too bad.

They've tried doing that with allografts. The best they can do is pull two strips through. Though it sounds like it would be a relatively minor surgery, it's actually quite a big deal as a "tunnel" or "pocket" needs to be created, so the trauma to the penis will still cause retraction, scar tissue will still form and of course with any implant, the risk of infection is greater.
