| Popis: |
Cuff erosion at the bladder neck of an implanted artificial urinary sphincter (AUS) needs complete explantation of the device. The subsequent scar tissues predispose to repeated cuff erosion, when another AUS is implanted with the cuff at a similar location. We describe a paraplegic patient with exstrophy-epispadias complex that suffered from an AUS cuff erosion at the bladder neck. We use a novel perineal-retropubic route for cuff placement, with preparation similar to a retropubic male sling. At 12 years follow-up the AUS is still functional and the patient continent. |
