A method of implanting a penile prosthesis includes providing a tool including a needle having a locking groove formed in a shaft of the needle, where the locking groove has a ridge or a notch. The method includes accessing a penile implant having a length of suture coupled to a distal end of the penile implant, securing the length of suture into the locking groove of the needle; inserting the tool and the needle into a corpora cavernosum of a penis; passing the needle and the length of suture through a glans of the penis; disengaging the length of suture from the locking groove of the needle; and pulling the penile implant into the corpora cavernosum of the penis with the length of suture.
