Popis: | Purpose: We determine the long-term efficacy and safety of the UroLume stent as minimally invasive treatment for external detrusor-sphincter dyssynergia in spinal cord injured men.Materials and Methods: A total of 160 spinal cord injured men with a mean age plus or minus standard deviation of 36.3 +/− 12.1 years (range 16 to 74) were prospectively treated with an endoprosthesis at 15 centers as part of the North American UroLume trial for external detrusor-sphincter dyssynergia. Urodynamic parameters, including voiding pressure, residual urine volume and bladder capacity, were compared before treatment and at 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 years after treatment.Results: Mean voiding pressure was 75.1 +/− 28.2 cm. water before treatment in the 160 patients, and 37.4 +/− 23.9 at year 1 in 97, 39.5 +/− 22.2 at year 2 in 84, 42.6 +/− 27.3 at year 3 in 61, 46.3 +/− 33.2 at year 4 in 57 and 44.2 +/− 28.9 cm. at year 5 in 41 after stent insertion (p |
