Artificial Urinary Sphincter in Women [PDF]
Artificial urinary sphincter provides an option to restore continence when other methods have failed. Patient selection, details and workings of the artificial urinary sphincter, open and laparoscopic insertion of these devices are described with postoperative management and early/late complications discussed.

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

Treatment of Urinary Incontinence By An Implantable Prosthetic Urinary Sphincter
Journal of Urology, 1974SummaryImplantation of a prosthetic urinary sphincter represents the first of a series of developments which will ultimately lead to complete electromechanical control of micturition in the patient with neurologic bladder dysfunction. This prosthesis has been implanted success-fully to restore continence in 27 of 34 patients with various types of ...

The Artificial Urinary Sphincter
2003The ultimate goal when treating urinary incontinence is to achieve normal voiding patterns while allowing dry intervals between voiding. In the case of urinary incontinence due to intrinsic sphincter dysfunction (ISD) there are currently three options to offer: behavioral techniques, pharmacotherapy, and surgical intervention.

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 port.

The artificial urinary sphincter may be considered one of the methods of choice for the treatment of neurogenic urinary incontinence. In paediatric practice, however, it should not be proposed gratuitously for patients with sphincteric deficits. Obtaining continence is simple if the indications and the technique of implantation are given their due ...

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 ...

Experience with the Artificial Urinary Sphincter at Michigan
Journal of Urology, 1976Between August 1973 and May 1975, 9 patients with various causes of urinary incontinence were treated with the implantable artificial sphincter. Of these 9 patients 6 remained continent on long-term followup. Complications, observed in 5 patients, were corrected successfully in 2 but were treated unsuccessfully in 3 and resulted in partial or complete ...

The Artificial Urinary Sphincter
Urologic Clinics of North America, 1989The author's experience and results of implanting the artificial sphincter into 406 adults from June 1972 through March 1988 are reviewed. The early experience in which the device was pressurized by means of valves has been compared with later experience with the device whose pressure is controlled by means of a balloon.
