Etiologies for incontinence varied, including post-prostatectomy incontinence, myelodysplasia and female incontinence after unsuccessful bladder neck suspension. Over-all, 38 per cent of the patients were excellent or improved postoperatively, while 24 per cent experienced continuing unabated urinary incontinence and 24 per cent experienced urethral erosion at the site of cuff placement. The device was removed in 14 per cent of the patients when it became infected. © 1980 by The American Urological Association Education and Research, Inc.FiguresReferencesRelatedDetailsCited byKaufman M, Milam D, Johnsen N, Cleves M, Broghammer J, Brant W, Jones L, Brady J, Gross M and Henry G (2017) Prior Radiation Therapy Decreases Time to Idiopathic Erosion of Artificial Urinary Sphincter: A Multi-Institutional AnalysisJournal of Urology, VOL. 199, NO. 4, (1037-1041), Online publication date: 1-Apr-2018.Johnson D, O’reilly J and Warren J (2018) Clinical Evaluation of an External Urine Collection Device for Nonambulatory Incontinent WomenJournal of Urology, VOL. 141, NO. 3 Part 1, (535-537), Online publication date: 1-Mar-1989.Walterspiel J, Kaplan s, Fishman I and Scott F (2018) Fungal Infection Associated with Artificial Urethral Sphincters in ChildrenJournal of Urology, VOL. 135, NO. 6, (1245-1246), Online publication date: 1-Jun-1986.Furlow W and Barrett D (2018) Recurrent or Persistent Urinary Incontinence in Patients with the Artificial Urinary Sphincter: Diagnostic Considerations and ManagementJournal of Urology, VOL. 133, NO. 5, (792-795), Online publication date: 1-May-1985.Webster G and Sihelnik S (2018) Troubleshooting the Malfunctioning Scott Artificial Urinary SphincterJournal of Urology, VOL. 131, NO. 2, (269-272), Online publication date: 1-Feb-1984.Barrett D and Furlow W (2018) The Management of Severe Urinary Incontinence in patients with Myelodysplasia by Implantation of the as 791/792 Urinary Sphincter DeviceJournal of Urology, VOL. 128, NO. 3, (484-486), Online publication date: 1-Sep-1982.
