Outcomes of lateral tube positioning technique for ams 800 (TM) artificial urinary sphincter placement

We evaluated 46 males. Mean f‐up was 28.2 (3‐57) months. There was no mechanical failure. Cuff erosion rate was 8.7% (4 males). We had no complications, nor infections attributed to the new tubing path. Visual analog scale (VAS) showed postoperative pain intensity as none in 74%, and mild in 26%. Urinary retention longer than 48 hours occurred in 10.9% of the patients (5 cases), and suprapubic tube placement was easy, fast, and safe with any tubing damage.

Abstract

Outcomes of lateral tube positioning technique for ams 800 (TM) artificial urinary sphincter placement
2019
artificial urinary sphincter, AMS800
We evaluated 46 males. Mean f‐up was 28.2 (3‐57) months. There was no mechanical failure. Cuff erosion rate was 8.7% (4 males). We had no complications, nor infections attributed to the new tubing path. Visual analog scale (VAS) showed postoperative pain intensity as none in 74%, and mild in 26%. Urinary retention longer than 48 hours occurred in 10.9% of the patients (5 cases), and suprapubic tube placement was easy, fast, and safe with any tubing damage.
