Sacral neuromodulation in patients with refractory overactive bladder symptoms after failed Botulinum toxin therapy: Results in a large cohort of patients.

Aims: Sacral neuromodulation (SNM) and Botulinum toxin A (BoNT-A) injections are well-known third-line treatment options in patients with refractory overactive bladder (OAB). Our aim is to evaluate the success rate of SNM in patients who received prior therapy with BoNT-A injections.

Methods: All patients with OAB symptoms referred for SNM between 2006 and 2019 were included.

First-in-human implantation of a mid-field powered neurostimulator at the sacral nerve: Results from an acute study.

Introduction: Commercially approved implantable systems for sacral neuromodulation require the implantation of a multipolar lead subcutaneously connected to an implantable pulse generator (IPG). Eliminating the need for an IPG would eliminate the need for tunneling of the lead, reduce procedure time, infection risk, and the need for IPG replacement. The objective was to demonstrate the feasibility of implanting the AHLeveeS System in the S3 Foramen to stimulate the S3 sacral nerve.
