Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the therapeutic effect of implantation of artificial urinary sphincter (AUS) for treatment of patients with trauma-induced genuine stress incontinence. Methods Two patients (1 male and 1 female) with genuine stress incontinence due to urethral rupture underwent implantation of AUS device (AMS 800).In the male case,the cuff of the AUS device was used to wrap the bulbar urethra.The reservoir was placed into the retropubic space.The controllable pump was implanted into the right scrotum. In the female case,the cuff was used to wrap the neck of bladder.The reservoir was placed into the retropubic space. The pump was implanted into the right subcutaneous labium majus.The literature was reviewed to show the indication,efficacy,complication and durability of implantation of AUS device. Results After operation the male patient was followed up for 17 months,and he achieved complete continence.The female was followed up for 14 months,and she had significant improvement in continence with changing 1 or 2 small pads every day.There were no infection, erosion, urethral atrophy and mechanical failure during follow-up.The review of the literature showed that in patients with implantation of AUS the mean of continence rate was 85.5%;the incidence rates of infection,erosion,urethral atrophy and mechanical failure were 6.1%,7.5%,6.1% and 16.7%,respectively. Conclusions The implantation of AUS is an effective,reliable method for patients with trauma-induced genuine stress incontinence.
