The development and evolution of artificial urethral sphincters

Journal of Medical Engineering & Technology, 1998
This history and evolution of mechanical devices designed to achieve urinary continence are reviewed. The following devices were studies: Foley clamp, Kaufman prosthesis, Giori, Summers and Rosen sphincters, Gruneberger and Cleveland Clinic magnetic designs, Craggs sphincter and the AMS family of sphincters (AMS 721, AMS 761, AMS 742 (A, B, C), AMS 792,

Urethral Sphincteric Responses to Sacral Root Stimulation

European Urology, 1991
Deafferentation and stimulation of sacral nerves in patients with complete spinal cord lesions is a good model to study the parasympathetic influence on urethral behavior. During intradural sacral deafferentation from S2 to S4/S5 in preparation for implantation of the Finetech-Brindley anterior sacral root stimulator, sacral roots were stimulated with ...

TONUS OF THE VOLUNTARY ANAL AND URETHRAL SPHINCTERS

Sherrington's summation at the conclusion of the International Neurological Congress in 1931 1 indicated the present day concept of skeletal muscle "tonus" as purely a simpler form of contraction activated largely by proprioceptive reflexes.

Zur Anatomie des Sphincter urethrae

Zeitschrift f�r Anatomie und Entwicklungsgeschichte, 1961
Es wird gezeigt, das der distal von der Prostata die Urethra umfassende quergestreifte Ringmuskel einen selbstandigen Muskel Sphincter infraprostaticus darstellt, der distal und proximal von glatter Muskulatur begrenzt wird. Durch diesen Rhabdosphincter infraprostaticus strahlen Bundel glatter Muskulatur aus der Langsmuskulatur der Urethra ins Centrum ...

Reconstruction of Urethral Sphincter With Polyacrylamide Hydrogel

Urogynecology
Importance Urethral bulking is an alternative to synthetic midurethral sling for the treatment of stress urinary incontinence (SUI) in women. Urethral bulking agents, which are injected in the submucosal tissues of the proximal urethra/bladder neck, have demonstrated less adverse effects with similar satisfaction rates but ...
