Urinary artificial sphincter

Urologia Journal, 1995
The artificial sphincter is a well-accepted and successful method for restoring urinary continence in selected patients. The patient who will benefit from this device is one who has a poorly or non-functioning urethral sphincter mechanism. The site of inflatable cuff placement is around the bulbous urethral or bladder neck (children, women).

Novel Electromechanic Artificial Urinary Sphincter

IEEE/ASME Transactions on Mechatronics, 2016
Implantation of an artificial urinary sphincter (AUS) is the treatment of choice for managing severe stress urinary incontinence. This hydromechanical implant mimics a healthy sphincter by exerting a constant circumferential pressure around the urethra to close it and keep urine in the bladder.

Artificial Urinary Sphincter Cuff Downsizing Improves Continence and Patient Satisfaction in Cases of Sub-cuff Atrophy

Journal of Urology, 2022
Purpose: The management of artificial urinary sphincter sub-cuff atrophy remains controversial, and clinical outcomes are underreported. We intend to examine the impact of cuff downsizing in cases of isolated sub-cuff atrophy.
