A case report of the preferred indication for the Zephyr (ZSI 375) artificial urinary sphincter

To evaluate the safety and efficacy of one piece urinary sphincter (ZSI 375) in patients with history of multiple lower abdominal surgeries. A 26 year old man presented with severe stress urinary incontinence since 19 years ago. At the age of 7, he suffered severe pelvic injuries due to a car accident and underwent multiple surgeries and a very large skin graft in the lower abdominal area. We used ZSI 375 as a one-piece urinary sphincter to prevent visceral injury because of scar tissue dissection. No complication was observed during one year follow up.
