A fluid reservoir (118) for a penile implant device that includes a body portion (126) having a sleeve (134) from which a tube (124) may extend. The body portion includes support structure (138) positioned at an interior surface of the body portion near an orifice of the reservoir, which orifice leads to a fluid passage (136) of the tube. The support structure may comprise a plurality of protrusions (140) that are arranged around the orifice (127) and that extend from a base portion (142) of the body portion. The invention also relates to a method of manufacturing a fluid reservoir for a penile implant device, which includes positioning a tube in a mold and injection molding a reservoir body onto the tube. More particularly, the method may include providing a mold, positioning a tube in the mold, injecting material into the mold, curing the material, and opening the mold to remove the reservoir body and tube assembly.
