    Area of Science:

    • Urology
    • Surgical Technology

    Background:

    • Postoperative male urinary incontinence is a common complication after prostate surgery.
    • Severe cases often require advanced treatment options.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the efficacy and safety of the AMS artificial sphincter (AS 800) for treating male urinary incontinence.
    • To describe a modified bulbar implantation technique.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective analysis of 41 patients with male urinary incontinence treated with AMS AS 800.
    • Utilized a modified bulbar implantation technique.

    Main Results:

    • Achieved a 92.7% success rate in treating urinary incontinence.
    • Detailed operative technique, complication, and revision rates were analyzed.

    Conclusions:

    • The artificial urinary sphincter is a highly effective treatment for severe male urinary incontinence.
    • This method is suitable even after radical prostatectomy or transurethral resection.
