Context:The use of the artificial urinary sphincter (AUS) for female non-neurogenic severe stress urinary incontinence (SUI) due to sphincter deficiency is either not specifically registered and/or reimbursed in some countries worldwide, as opposed to males, in whom it is considered the gold ...
Objective: Evaluate the results of the artificial urinary sphincter placement of AMS 800 in the Department of Urology of São João Hospital Center in a 6-year period (January 2007/December 2012). Material and methods: 30 male patients with urinary incontinence (UI) underwent placement of AUS...
Widespread adoption of the AMS-800 artificial urinary sphincter (AUS) in female patients has been hampered by the surgical morbidity of its implantation through an open approach. Objective To describe a standardized technique of robotic bladder neck AUS implantation in female patients, and to report...

The strictures were treated in many ways but recurred. We treated the vesico-urethral junction stricture with implantation of metallic mesh in the strictured area and the urinary incontinence with implantation of an AMS-800 artificial sphincter.doi:10.1089/end.1992.6.365MANLIO SCHETTINIANGELO ACCONCIA...
Urethral erosion occurred in approximately 12%, infection in 4.5% and mechanical complications in 14% of cases. The complications relating to the AMS artificial urinary sphincter are analyzed. The majority of patients (>85%) required only one revision. 22% of ...
In case of urethral erosion and/or local sepsis, the AUS should be excluded. If the urethra has been surgically dissected, we suggest waiting 4 weeks before activating the AUS. Introduction Le sphincter urinaire artificiel (SUA) AMS 800® est une prothèse implantable constituée de trois ...

To report the functional results and morbidity after metachronous implantation of an AMS 800 artificial urinary sphincter (AUS) and an AMS 700 inflatable penile prosthesis (IPP). From the 250 patients treated in our department between 2000 and 2011 for the insertion of an AUS, we retrospectively ...
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES Progressive deterioration of urinary continence after artificial urethral sphincter implantation occurs in 3 to 9% of patients. The most common etiology is believed to be urethral atrophy with recommended treatment including replacement or doubling of the urethral cuff with or ...
