RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Midurethral slings are the gold standard for treating stress urinary incontinence, but their complications may raise concerns. Complications may differ by the approach used to place them. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to compare serious complications and reoperations for recurrence after midurethral sling procedures when using the retropubic vs the transobturator route for female stress urinary incontinence. STUDY DESIGN: This analysis was of patients included in the French, multicenter VIGI-MESH register since February 2017 who received a midurethral sling for female stress urinary incontinence either by the retropubic or the transobturator route and excluded patients with single-incision slings. Follow-up continued until October 2021. Serious complications (Clavien-Dindo classification ≥ grade III) attributable to the midurethral sling and reoperations for recurrence were compared using Cox proportional hazard models including any associated surgery (hysterectomy or prolapse) and a frailty term to consider the center effect. Baseline differences were balanced by propensity score weighting. Analyses using the propensity score and Cox models were adjusted for baseline differences, center effect, and associated surgery. RESULTS: A total of 1830 participants received a retropubic sling and 852 received a transobturator sling in 27 French centers that were placed by 167 surgeons. The cumulative 2-year estimate of serious complications was 5.8% (95% confidence interval, 4.8-7.0) in the retropubic group and 2.9% (95% confidence interval, 1.9-4.3) in the transobturator group, that is, after adjustment, half of the retropubic group was affected (adjusted hazard ratio, 0.41; 95% confidence interval, 0.3-0.6). The cumulative 2-year estimate of reoperation for recurrence of stress urinary incontinence was 2.7% (95% confidence interval, 2.0-3.6) in the retropubic group and 2.8% (95% confidence interval, 1.7-4.2) in the transobturator group with risk for revision for recurrence being higher in the transobturator group after adjustment (adjusted hazard ratio, 1.9; 95% confidence interval, 1.2-2.9); this surplus risk disappeared after exclusion of the patients with a previous surgery for stress urinary incontinence. CONCLUSION: The transobturator route for midurethral sling placement is associated with a lower risk for serious complications but a higher risk for surgical reoperation for recurrence than the retropubic route. Despite the large number of surgeons involved, these risks were low. The data are therefore reassuring.

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: The AMS 800 has dominated the treatment of postprostatectomy urinary incontinence (PPUI) due to intrinsic sphincter deficiency (ISD) for five decades. A narrative review from June 2022 to June 2024 was conducted using 'artificial urinary sphincter' (AUS) MeSH terms in Embase. We extracted information on innovative AUS, randomized controlled trials (RCTs) or prospective studies, and systematic reviews. We evaluated the latest guidelines and consensus and analyzed current trends to discuss options for advancing AUS practices. RECENT FINDINGS: Of 465 papers identified, 320 were excluded (irrelevant, duplicates, non-AUS devices, non-English, veterinary), and 145 were reviewed, with 24 selected: seven on novel AUS in development, 7 with higher-level evidence (1 RCT, 1 prospective, 4 systematic reviews, 1 nonsystematic review), and 9 retrospective relevant studies [pressure regulating balloon (PRB), revision strategies, radiotherapy history, manual dexterity/cognition, transscrotal vs. transperineal approach]. The final paper summarized current guidelines from Asia & Pacific on AUS. SUMMARY: In the past 2 years, six novel AUS have emerged, two female RCTs are ongoing, the SATURN study published its 1-year outcomes, and four systematic reviews on female AUS were conducted. These findings enhance evidence levels and position novel AUS to challenge the Gold Standard.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the health status and recovery of women after mid-urethral sling (MUS) revision in response to complications. DESIGN: Cross-sectional study using a questionnaire sent to women from a registry. SETTING: Twenty-two French surgical centres. POPULATION: A total of 287 women from the VIGI-MESH registry responded, having undergone MUS revision for complications. METHODS: Our sample of women were compared against a representative set of French women taken from the Eurostat database. Multivariate analysis was performed to identify clinical predictors for successful MUS revision. A qualitative analysis was carried out on free-text comments. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Health status, defined by the Minimum European Health Module, and recovery, assessed by Patient Global Impression of Improvement. RESULTS: The response rate was 76% (287/378), with 49% of the women (141/287, 95% CI 43%-55%) reporting good health status, which was 8 points lower than that expected from the comparator French set (57%, 95% CI 55%-58%). Overall, 53% (147/275, 95% CI 47%-59%) of the women reported feeling much better after MUS revision. Just over one-third (35%, 95/275, 95% CI 29%-40%) of respondents reported poor health with little or no improvement. Multivariate analysis showed that being operated on for pain at revision was associated with worse self-perceived health than being operated on for exposure (OR 0.6, 95% CI 0.14-0.95); women with pre-existing comorbidity reported a poorer health status following MUS revision (OR 0.22, 95% CI 0.13-0.38). CONCLUSIONS: Our results suggest that half of the women recovered good health status after MUS revision, whereas a proportion appeared to be seriously affected by an MUS complication despite the revision.
RESUMO
PURPOSE: While detrusor overactivity (DO) with detrusor underactivity (DU) (DO-DU) has been described as typical of aging, the pathogenesis of DO-DU is highly multifactorial, and often thought to involve medical conditions beyond the urinary tract. We aimed to explore potential associations between idiopathic DO-DU and frailty in older women after accounting for age. METHODS: The design of the study is a cross-sectional single-center study, in an outpatient urodynamic unit specializing in geriatrics. Participants are consecutive female patients aged ≥65 years without contributory neurological conditions or bladder outlet obstruction who completed a comprehensive geriatric assessment followed by urodynamic evaluation from 2015 to 2019. Participants were categorized as having DO, DU, combined DO-DU, or a negative study. Multinomial logistic regression analysis was used to assess the relationship between urodynamic outcomes and frailty, as quantified using the Frailty index (FI). RESULTS: Ninety-five patients were included (median age 78 [interquartile range: 70-83] years), among whom 29% had combined DO-DU. The median FI score was 0.27 (0.2-0.32) (5-12). A higher FI was associated with significantly greater age-adjusted odds of DO-DU when either DU or subjects with a negative urodynamic assessment were used as the reference group. Age was not significantly associated with DO-DU across all multivariable analyses. CONCLUSION: A higher FI was associated with an increased likelihood of DO-DU, which could not be attributed to the effect of age alone. The pathogenesis of DO-DU is likely more complex than chronological aging in and of itself and merits further study.

INTRODUCTION: Neurogenic detrusor overactivity (NDO) has a major impact on patients' quality of life and can lead to upper urinary tract complications. Intradetrusor botulinum toxin type A injections are administered as second-line treatment to these patients following the failure of anticholinergic agents. The aim of the DETOX 2 study is to propose a consensus definition of the failure of intradetrusor botulinum toxin injections for NDO in patients presenting spinal cord injury, spina bifida, or multiple sclerosis (MS) with self-catheterization. METHOD: This study followed the method adopted by the French National Authority for Health for recommendations by consensus. Based on a review of the literature and a preliminary survey, a steering committee compiled a questionnaire and selected a rating group comprising 16 experts from the Neuro-Urology Committee of the French Urology Association (cnuAFU) and Genulf. The experts were asked to complete the online questionnaire. At the end of the first round, all participants came together to discuss any disagreements and a second-round online questionnaire was completed to reach a consensus. RESULTS: Thirteen of the 16 experts approached completed both rounds of questionnaires. A strong consensus was reached for two proposals (median score = 9/10) which were therefore included in the definition from the first round: at least one repeat injection of the same botulinum toxin at the same dose must be given to rule out failure on technical grounds and a duration of efficacy <3 months must be considered a failure. At the end of round 2, a relative consensus was reached regarding the clinical criterion defining failure (median score = 7/10) and the urodynamic criterion of failure (median score = 8/10). An additional proposal was selected during this second round on the need for a voiding diary (median score = 8/10). CONCLUSION: The first consensus definition of failure of an intradetrusor injection of TB-A for NDO has been achieved with this study: persistence of detrusor overactivity with maximum detrusor pressures >40 cm H2O and/or a compliance issue and/or persistence of urinary incontinence and/or urgency and/or a number of daily self-catheterizations >8/day and/or efficacy <3 months. This study will help to standardize research on the failure of the intradetrusor botulinum toxin for NDO in clinical practice and clinical research.

PURPOSE: We evaluate the efficacy and safety of combining antimuscarinics with alpha-blockers to treat storage symptoms in men with benign prostatic hyperplasia. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Searches were carried out on PubMed, MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Cochrane databases to identify randomized, placebo-controlled trials published before February 15, 2022, assessing the efficacy or safety of antimuscarinics in men with benign prostatic hyperplasia treated with alpha-blockers. Further meta-analyses were performed using standardized mean difference and risk ratio. RESULTS: A total of 12 randomized trials were included in the systematic review. The meta-analysis showed no impact of antimuscarinics on the number of urgencies per day (SMD -0.23 [95%CI: -0.64; -0.17]; P = .21). However, the use of antimuscarinics was associated with a small reduction of micturition episodes per day (SMD -0.19 [95%CI: -0.37; -0.01]; P = .045). With regard to side effects, post-void residual increased slightly in patients treated with antimuscarinics (SMD 0.26 [95%CI: 0.15; 0.37]; P < .01). In addition, there was a higher risk of acute urinary retention (RR 3.26 [95%CI: 1.35; 7.86]; P = .02), dry mouth (RR 3.43 [95%CI: 1.86; 6.32]; P < .001), and constipation (RR 2.92 [95%CI: 1.48; 5.73]; P < .001) with the use of antimuscarinics. Finally, the risk of treatment interruption due to adverse events was higher for the patients treated with antimuscarinics (RR 1.74 [95%CI: 1.27; 2.38]; P < .01). CONCLUSIONS: The addition of antimuscarinics to alpha-blockers was not associated with a substantial reduction in urgencies and micturition episodes in benign prostatic hyperplasia patients with storage symptoms. In addition, the toxicity profile was not in favor of antimuscarinic use in these patients.

BACKGROUND: While intravesical injections of botulinum neurotoxin A (BoNT-A) are currently recommended for patients experiencing refractory neurogenic overactive bladder and/or detrusor overactivity (OAB/DO), it is unclear how much this therapy is effective and sustainable in the long-term in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS). OBJECTIVES: To assess the mid-term continuation rate of BoNT-A injections to treat neurogenic OAB/DO in MS patients and to investigate MS-specific risk factors for discontinuation. METHODS: This retrospective study involved 11 French university hospital centers. All MS patients who received BoNT-A to treat neurogenic OAB/DO between 2008 and 2013 and were subsequently followed up for at least 5 years were eligible. RESULTS: Of the 196 MS patients included, 159 (81.1%) were still under BoNT-A 5 years after the first injection. The combination of the Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS < 6 or ⩾ 6) and of the MS type (relapsing-remitting vs progressive) predicted the risk of discontinuation. This risk was 5.5% for patients with no risk factor, whereas patients presenting with one or two risk factors were 3.3 and 5.7 times more likely to discontinue, respectively. CONCLUSION: BoNT-A is a satisfying mid-term neurogenic OAB/DO therapy for most MS patients. Combining EDSS and MS type could help predict BoNT-A discontinuation.

PURPOSE: This abstract aims to assess the evolution of neurogenic patient management over the past century, with a focus on persistent unmet needs in the field. We reflect on the history of neurourology and its key principles, highlighting urgent needs for research and progress. METHODS: This review is based on a non-systematic search of MEDLINE databases. We explore the historical context, innovations, and challenges in neurological patient care, using keywords such as "Neurourology", "history" and "future", as well as specific treatment modalities. RESULT: Several unmet needs in the field of neurourology have been identified. These include the need to strike a balance between spontaneous micturition and continence, the search for solutions to restore spontaneous micturition in patients with acontractile bladders, the imperative to improve and personalize renal and bladder function monitoring, mitigation of the side effects of long-term treatments, strategies to manage recurrent urinary tract infections, and efforts to overcome organizational barriers in patient care. CONCLUSION: The care of neurological patients has made remarkable progress over the past 50 years. However, persistent unmet needs underline the need for ongoing research and collaboration to improve the quality of care in this field.
RESUMO
PURPOSE: Patients with artificial urinary eventually need surgical revision. Unfortunately, in women, this requires another invasive abdominal intervention. Robotic-assisted revision may provide a less invasive and more acceptable approach for sphincter revision in women. We wanted to determinate the continence status after robotic-assisted artificial urinary sphincter revision among women with stress incontinence. We also examined postoperative complications and the safety of the procedure. METHODS: The chart of the 31 women with stress urinary incontinence who underwent robotic-assisted AUS revision at our referral center from January 2015 to January 2022 were reviewed retrospectively. All patients underwent a robotic-assisted artificial urinary sphincter revision by one of our two expert surgeons. The primary outcome was to determinate the continence rate after revision and the secondary outcome aimed to evaluate the safety and feasibility of the procedure. RESULTS: Mean patients age was 65 years old, and the mean time between the sphincter revision and previous implantation was 98 months. After a mean follow-up of 35 months, 75% of the patients were fully continent (0-pad). Moreover, 71% of the women were back to the same continence status as with the previously functional sphincter, while 14% even have an improved continence status. Clavien-Dindo grade [Formula: see text] 3 and overall complications occurred in 9% and 20.5% of our patients, respectively. This study is mainly limited by its retrospective design. CONCLUSION: Robotic-assisted AUS revision carries satisfying outcome in terms of continence and safety.

PURPOSE: To report perioperative, renal function and oncological outcomes of robot-assisted radical nephroureterectomy (RNU) for patients with upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC). METHODS: This was a retrospective single-arm monocentric study including all consecutive UTUC patients treated with robot-assisted RNU at our institution between 2014 and 2022. Descriptive statistics with median and interquartile range (IQR) for continuous variables and numbers with frequencies for categorical variables were used to report perioperative and renal function outcomes while Kaplan-Meier curves were computed to present extravesical and intravesical recurrence-free survival(RFS) as well as cancer-specific (CSS) and overall survival (OS) with the corresponding 95% confidence intervals(CIs). RESULTS: Overall, 70 patients with a median age of 69.6 [63.3-74.9] years were included in our study. With regards to perioperative outcomes, the median operative time was 157 [130-182] min with a median blood loss of 200 [100-300] cc. Intraoperative complications occurred in 4 (5.7%) patients but no conversion to open or laparoscopic surgery was required. Postoperative complications occurred in 9 (12.9%) patients, including 5 (7.1%) with grade ≥ 3 complications according to the Clavien-Dindo classification. The median length of stay was 4 [3-6] days. With regards to renal function outcomes, the median postoperative loss in estimated glomerular filtration rate at discharge was 16 [10.25-26] mL/min/1.73 m2. With regards to oncological outcomes, the 3-year extravesical and intravesical RFS, CSS and OS rates were 73.6 [62.8-86.2]%, 68.1 [54.6-85]%, 82.5 [72-94.4]% and 75.3 [63.4-89.5]%, respectively. CONCLUSION: We report favorable perioperative and oncological outcomes with expected decrease in renal function after robot-assisted RNU for patients with UTUC.

PURPOSE: This study aimed to seek predictive factors and develop a predictive tool for sacral nerve modulation (SNM) implantation in patients with non-obstructive urinary retention and/or slow urinary stream (NOUR/SS). METHODS: This study was designed as a retrospective study including all patients who have undergone a two-stage SNM for NOUR/SS between 2000 and 2021 in 11 academic hospitals. The primary outcome was defined as the implantation rate. Secondary outcomes included changes in bladder emptying parameters. Univariate and multivariable logistic regression analysis were performed and determined odds ratio for IPG implantation to build a predictive tool. The performance of the multivariable model discrimination was evaluated using the c-statistics and an internal validation was performed using bootstrap resampling. RESULTS: Of the 357 patients included, 210 (58.8%) were finally implanted. After multivariable logistic regression, 4 predictive factors were found, including age (≤ 52 yo; OR = 3.31 CI95% [1.79; 6.14]), gender (female; OR = 2.62 CI95% [1.39; 4.92]), maximal urethral closure pressure (≥ 70 cmH2O; OR: 2.36 CI95% [1.17; 4.74]), and the absence of an underlying neurological disease affecting the lower motor neuron (OR = 2.25 CI95% [1.07; 4.76]). Combining these factors, we established 16 response profiles with distinct IPG implantation rates, ranging from 8.7 to 81.5%. Internal validation found a good discrimination value (c-statistic, 0.724; 95% CI 0.660-0.789) with a low optimism bias (0.013). This allowed us to develop a predictive tool ( https://predictivetool.wixsite.com/void ). CONCLUSION: The present study identified 4 predictive factors, allowing to develop a predictive tool for SNM implantation in NOUR/SS patients, that may help in guiding therapeutic decision-making. External validation of the tool is warranted.

PURPOSE: The artificial urinary sphincter is the reference treatment for stress urinary incontinence in men, but it remains rarely used in women. This study aimed to compare long-term device survival between women and men, after the first implantation of an AMS800™ artificial urinary sphincter (Boston Scientific) for the treatment of a non-neurogenic stress urinary incontinence. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This retrospective cohort study included all patients with nonneurogenic stress urinary incontinence who underwent surgery in a large-volume university hospital between 2000 and 2013. The primary outcome was the overall survival of the device, defined as the absence of any repeated surgery (revision or explantation) during follow-up. Men and women were matched 3:1 according to age and year of implantation. Differences were analyzed using a Cox model accounting for matching and applying time intervals because hazards were not proportional over time. Sensitivity analyzes were performed, excluding firstly a population with a history of radiotherapy and secondly a population with more than one previous surgery for urinary incontinence. RESULTS: A total of 107 women were matched to 316 men. Median follow-up was 6.0 years (Q1-Q3 1.8-9.4): 7.0 years (Q1-Q3 3.1-10.3) for women and 5.1 years (Q1-Q3 1.3-9.1) for men. During the follow-up, 56 patients had an explantation of the device: 44 men (13.9%) and 12 women (11.2%), and 113 had a revision: 85 men (26.9%) and 28 women (26.1%). Men have a significantly higher risk of explantation or revision than women between 6 months and 8 years after implantation (hazard ratio 2.12 [1.29-3.48]). Before 6 months and after 8 years, there were no significant differences. Both sensitivity analyses found consistent results. CONCLUSIONS: This study suggests that device survival seems better in women after the first 6 months.

INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS: Patients presenting with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) may report a history of sexual abuse (SA), and survivors of SA may report LUTS; however, the nature of the relationship is poorly understood. The aim of this review is to systematically evaluate studies that explore LUT dysfunction in survivors of SA. METHODS: A systematic literature search of six databases, Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL, AMED, and PsycINFO, was performed. The last search date was June 2021 (PROSPERO CRD42019122080). Studies reporting the prevalence and symptoms of LUTS in patients who have experienced SA were included. The literature was appraised according to the PRISMA statement. The quality of the studies was assessed. RESULTS: Out of 272 papers retrieved, 18 publications met the inclusion criteria: studies exploring LUTS in SA survivors (n=2), SA in patients attending clinics for their LUTs (n=8), and cross-sectional studies (n=8). SA prevalence ranged between 1.3% and 49.6%. A history of SA was associated with psychosocial stressors, depression, and anxiety. LUTS included urinary storage symptoms, voiding difficulties, voluntary holding of urine and urinary tract infections. Most studies were of moderate quality. Assessment of SA and LUTS lacked standardisation. CONCLUSIONS: The review highlights the need for a holistic assessment of patients presenting with LUTS. Although most of the studies were rated as being of 'moderate' quality, the evidence suggests the need to provide a "safe space" in clinic for patients to share sensitive information about trauma. Any such disclosure should be followed up with further assessment.

BACKGROUND: Evidence shows that intermittent catheterisation (IC) for bladder emptying is linked to urinary tract infections (UTIs) and poor quality of life (QoL). AIM: To investigate the association between UTI risk factors and QoL and patient-reported UTIs respectively. METHODS: A survey was distributed to IC users from 13 countries. FINDINGS: Among 3464 respondents, a significantly poorer QoL was observed when experiencing blood in the urine, residual urine, bowel dysfunction, recurrent UTIs, being female, and applying withdrawal techniques. A lower UTI risk was found when blood was not apparent in urine (RR: 0.63; 95% CI: 0.55-0.71), the bladder was perceived empty (RR: 0.83; 95% CI: 0.72-0.96), not having bowel dysfunction (RR: 0.86; 95% CI: 0.76-0.98), and being male (RR: 0.70; 95% CI: 0.62-0.79). CONCLUSION: This study underlines the importance of risk factors and their link to QoL and UTIs, highlighting the need for addressing symptoms before UTIs become problematic.

OBJECTIVES: To report the functional outcomes of robot-assisted laparoscopic artificial urinary sphincter implantation (R-AUS) in men with neurogenic stress urinary incontinence (SUI). PATIENTS AND METHODS: A monocentric retrospective study included all consecutive adult male neuro-urological patients who underwent R-AUS for SUI between January 2011 and August 2018. The AUS was implanted via a transperitoneal robot-assisted laparoscopic approach. Intraoperative and early postoperative complications were reported (Clavien-Dindo classification). Continence was defined as no pad usage. Revision and explantation rates were also evaluated. RESULTS: Overall, 19 men with a median (interquartile range [IQR]) age of 45 (37-54) years were included. No conversion to laparotomy was needed. Three minor (Clavien-Dindo Grade I-II) early postoperative complications occurring in three (15.8%) patients were reported. The median (IQR) follow-up was 58 (36-70) months. At the end of the follow-up, the continence rate was 89.5%. The AUS revision and explantation rates were 5.3% and 0%, respectively. CONCLUSION: A R-AUS is a safe and efficient procedure for AUS implantation in adult male neuro-urological patients, referring to the challenging open technique.

PURPOSE: Cystectomy associated with non-continent ileal diversion is a common surgery in patients with neurogenic bladder. Few data are available, especially for the robotic approach. Our purpose was to compare open cystectomy (OC) and robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) with ileal conduit, regarding peri- and post-operative outcomes. METHODS: We included each patient who underwent cystectomy and ileal conduit for neurogenic bladder in a referral-center between January 2017 and November 2021. Data were retrospectively analyzed. Median follow-up was 16.6 months [IQR: 5; 41]. All patients had neurogenic bladder with failure of conservative treatment and/or impacted Quality of Life (QoL). Open cystectomy with non-continent ileal diversion and robot-assisted cystectomy with intra-corporeal non-continent ileal diversion were compared. Primary endpoint was postoperative complications. Secondary endpoints were length of hospital stay (LOS), surgery duration, blood loss and ureteral anastomosis stricture. RESULTS: A total of 123 patients were included, n = 85 (69.1%) undergoing OC and n = 38 (30.9%) RARC. Significant differences were observed for: operative time (OC 266.9 ± 64 vs. RARC 205.8 ± 55.5 min, p < 0.001), blood loss (OC 737.7 ± 515.8 vs. RARC 245.8 ± 169.6 ml, p < 0.001), delay until feeding resumption (OC 7.1 ± 4.7 vs. RARC 5.5 ± 2.9 days, p = 0.05) and mean LOS (OC 21.6 ± 13.9 vs. RARC 16.2 ± 7.6 days, p = 0.03). In RARC group, there were 10.5% complications Clavien-Dindo > 2 whereas 23.8% complications underwent in the OC group (p = 0.1). CONCLUSION: RARC is a safe approach for management of neurological bladder showing significantly better perioperative outcomes.

PURPOSE: To perform a dynamic evaluation of the prostate cancer (PCa) detection rate according to the biopsy strategy over 10 years of practice in a single institution that pioneered MRI-targeted fusion biopsy (MRI-TB). METHODS: This stage 4 IDEAL study prospectively included all consecutive patients who underwent transrectal prostate biopsy for clinically suspected PCa between January 2010 and November 2020. Patients with positive MRI (PIRADS score ≥ 3) underwent both MRI-TB and systematic biopsy (SB) while those with negative MRI (PIRADS score < 3) underwent SB only. The main outcome was the evolution of the detection rate of clinically relevant PCa (csPCa; grade ≥ 2). The secondary outcome was the change in PCa detection rate according to the biopsy method. RESULTS: A total of 2942 men underwent prostate MRI and a prostate biopsy: 2322 underwent MRI-TB and 620 had SB only. The detection rate of csPCa increased 2.5-fold from 23 to 58%. The detection rate of PCa and csPCa was significantly higher in patients who underwent MRI-TB compared to those who underwent SB only (67% vs. 52% and 40% vs. 32%, respectively (P < 0.001 for both comparisons)). The number of csPCa diagnosed by MRI-TB increased linearly over the study period and represented the majority of PCa diagnoses after 2016. CONCLUSION: Implementation of MRI-TB in patients with positive MRI led to improved detection of csPCa.

PURPOSE: To assess the efficacy and safety of intradetrusor botulinum toxin type A injections (IBTI) for idiopathic overactive bladder (iOAB) in non-neurological adults with an artificial urinary sphincter (AUS). MATERIALS AND METHODS: We retrospectively selected, in the 11 French centers, members of a collaborative network (GENULF (Groupe d'étude de neuro-urologie de langue francaise)), the patients who had had an artificial urinary sphincter implantation and who had subsequently developed iOAB requiring IBTI. This study was approved by the French association of urology ethics committee (no 2018012). RESULTS: Between 2006 and 2020, 33 patients were included from 5 French centers. Mean follow-up after the first IBTI was 47 months. The average age of the studied population was 68 years, with 70% of females. A complete resolution of symptoms at optimal IBTI dose was experienced by 21 (64%) patients. Seven (21%) patients had partial improvement. Five non-responder patients (15%) had no improvement at all. Maximum cystometric bladder capacity was 240 ml pre-IBTI and 335 ml post IBTI. Discontinuation free survival at 60 months was 50%. Two erosions occurred during the 6 months following an IBTI both in male patients with a perineal implantation. There were four AUS balloon perforations that occurred during the 6 months following an IBTI, all of them in female patients. CONCLUSIONS: IBTI has a good efficacy for the treatment of iOAB in patients with an AUS. However, both patients and practicians must be aware of the risk of rare and usually mild complications.

PURPOSE: Mid-urethral slings are the standard treatment for women with refractory stress urinary incontinence (SUI) but are at risk of infection or erosion due to host-prothesis interaction. In this proof-of-concept study, we aimed at evaluating umbilical vessel sling (UVS) in incontinent female rats. MATERIAL AND METHODS: UVS was extracted from human umbilical cord lining and was placed on female rats who underwent bilateral pelvic nerve injury (PNI) to reproduce SUI (Group 3, N = 10). Two control groups were also studied: rats with no PNI (Group 1, N = 4) and rats with PNI but no UVS (Group 2, N = 10). Micturition calendar was frequently recorded using a metabolic cage, and leak point pressure (LPP) test was performed on Day 28. After the LPP test, rats were euthanized, and bladder/urethra were collected for histopathological analysis. RESULTS: Overall, 24 rats were included, of whom 10 had both PNI and UVS placement. Compared with Group 2, Group 3 had increased maximal LPP but the difference did not reach significance (respectively 21.8 ± 2.1 mmHg vs. 28.4 ± 4.1 mmHg, p = 0.2). Micturition frequencies were similar between the groups. Total voided volume was higher in Group 3 at the end of the study compared with Group 2 (12.5 ± 1.1 ml vs. 9.4 ± 0.6 ml, respectively, p < 0.05). Histopathological findings evidenced a good local tolerance and a moderate to high tissue integration of the UVS. CONCLUSIONS: Biological sling derived from human umbilical vessel could be safely placed with a slight improvement of LPP in a population of rats who had bilateral PNI without major modification of micturition calendar. UVS could be a promising biomaterial in the management of SUI in women. Clinical studies are needed.

AIMS: This prospective multicenter observational study evaluated postprostatectomy incontinence treatment outcomes with Virtue male sling at 12 and 36 months. METHODS: Objective assessment was based on a 24-h pad weight test with improvement defined by a decrease >50% and cure by less than 1.3 g. Subjective assessment was based on the patient global impression of improvement and International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire-urinary incontinence-short form (ICIQ-UI-SF) questionnaires. Subgroups were analyzed by baseline severity of incontinence on a 24-h-pad test, body mass index (BMI), and pads usage. Factors associated with treatment response were assessed using logistic regression at Months 36. Complications were reported. RESULTS: We analyzed data from 117 men. Objective and subjective improvement were achieved in 54% and 35% and 51% and 34% at 12 and 36 months, respectively. Twenty-one percent and 19% were considered cured, respectively, at 12 and 36 months. No differences per baseline incontinence severity, BMI and pads usage were found at 36 months. Mean ICIQ-UI-SF score decreased from 15 to 9. Predictive factors were BMI, postvoid residual urine, number of nighttime urination, and ICIQ total score. Seven Clavien-Dindo Grade III (5.1%) including four Virtue sling revisions were reported. The most frequent Grade II complications were overactive bladder symptoms and pain reported in 10.3% and 2.9%, respectively. No complications required explantation. CONCLUSIONS: Virtue male sling is safe and effective in males with mild to severe postprostatectomy urinary incontinence over 36 months. Virtue could be considered an interesting option for postradical prostatectomy urinary incontinence with positive results over time even in patients with high BMI. The predictive model should be validated by further studies.
