A New Proximal Adjustable Sling ATOMS SSP Implantation Technique with Focus on the Urethral Bulb: Lessons Learned from Revision Surgery.

Background: Adjustable sling ATOMS-SSP results in ventral compression of the urethra with favorable results in the treatment of men with mild to moderate stress incontinence. However, with transobturator tunneling and mesh fixation, the surgeon has a range of options, which leads to different results and sometimes unfavorable positioning of the silicone cushion. Using retrograde urethrography (RUG), we identified ATOMS patients with considerable misplacement.

Supratrigonal cystectomy and augmentation cystoplasty with ileum or ileocecum in the treatment of ulcerative interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome: a 14-year follow-up.

Introduction And Hypothesis: This study analyzes the long-term results of supratrigonal cystectomy and augmentation cystoplasty in patients with severe ulcerative interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS) and reduced bladder capacity.

Methods: Outcome data were retrospectively and prospectively collected and analyzed in women who underwent supratrigonal cystectomy and augmentation cystoplasty for ulcerative IC/BPS at Muenster University Hospital between 1991 and 2006. We used cross-tabulation and Pearson's Chi-squared test to examine how outcome is influenced by age, preoperative functional bladder volume, and choice of augmentation material.

Compression or obstruction: Prospective analysis of the function of the Adjustable Transobturator Male System (ATOMS) based on preand postoperative urodynamic data.

Introduction: This analysis, based on pre- and postoperative urodynamic data, is the first to elucidate the influence of the Adjustable Transobturator Male System (ATOMS, A.M.I.
