MUSCULAR URINARY SPHINCTER: ELECTRICALLY STIMULATED MYOPLASTY FOR FUNCTIONAL SPHINCTER RECONSTRUCTION

Journal of Urology, 1998
To reconstruct an electrically stimulated muscular urinary sphincter (MUS) using a tailored gracilis muscle free flap with intact nerve.Unilateral surgically tailored gracilis muscle free flaps were transferred into the pelvis in eight dogs, leaving the obturator nerve intact.

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.

Continent Urinary Diversion Using an Artificial Urinary Sphincter

British Journal of Urology, 1992
Summary— 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

2006
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 ...

[Artificial urinary sphincter].

Bulletin de l'Academie nationale de medecine, 1995
The 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.
