Management of Artificial Urinary Sphincter Dysfunction
European Urology, 2004The long-term outcome of artificial urinary sphincter (AUS) is unpredictable because of, among others, the risk of breakdown of one of its components. Our objective was to define a strategy for an accurate diagnosis and an appropriate management of these problems.From 1985 to 2000, 298 AUS (AMS 800) have been implanted in 288 patients aged 53 +/- 21 ...

[Artificial urinary sphincter].
Bulletin de l'Academie nationale de medecine, 1995The artificial urinary sphincter is a totally implantable hydraulic prosthesis designed to restore continence without inducing dysuria. It is composed of 3 silicone elastomer elements: a periurethral or pericervical cuff, a pressure regulating reservoir balloon inserted in the retropubic space, and a pump situated in the scrotum or labia majora.

The Artificial Urinary Sphincter
2014Since the first implantation of the artificial urinary sphincter in 1973, thousands of men, women, and children have regained urinary continence, thanks to Dr. Brantley Scott. With long-term data now available, the AUS has become widely used with satisfactory outcomes. Multiple large series have confirmed the AUS to be a durable treatment for sphincter

Surgical results with artificial urinary sphincter
Urology, 1982From June, 1974, until January, 1977, eleven AMS 721 genitourinary sphincters were installed in 9 men and 2 females. Long term success was achieved in 2 men. Failures were encountered in 9 patients (82 per cent) with urethral erosions (3 patients), infection (1 patient), and mechanical failure (5 patients) accounting for the complications necessitating

The Artificial Urinary Sphincter in Children
British Journal of Urology, 1984Summary— One hundred and thirty‐two children underwent implantation of the AS792 artificial urinary sphincter over the past 5 years: 90% had an excellent result following the implantation. Thirty‐one patients (24%) required further surgery to correct a malfunction of the device. The device was removed in 5.3% of

Continent Urinary Diversion Using an Artificial Urinary Sphincter
British Journal of Urology, 1992Summary— We report a new and simplified method of continent urinary diversion employing a modified AMS 800 artificial urinary sphincter (AUS). Our aim in using this artificial valve is to make a stoma continent, while allowing intermittent catheterisation. The AMS 800 pump is replaced by a subcutaneous injection

Artificial Urinary Sphincter Implantation
2007Artificial urinary sphincter (AUS) implantation is most often performed to treat urinary incontinence following radical or subtotal prostatectomy. In these cases, the cuff of the AUS is placed around the bulbous urethra. This device can also be implanted to treat urinary incontinence associated with myelodysplasia in men, women, or children or to treat
