Background And Objective: The artificial urinary sphincter (AUS) is most known for its use in the treatment of moderate to severe post-prostatectomy stress urinary incontinence. However, another lesser-known indication includes stress incontinence related to intrinsic sphincter deficiency (ISD) in the neurogenic bladder population. The purpose of this review is to discuss specific technical considerations related to device implantation in this population, efficacy, durability, and complications.

Study Objective: Surgical excision of large deep endometriosis nodules infiltrating the bladder may be challenging, particularly when the nodule limits are close to the trigone and ureteral orifice. Bladder nodules have classically been approached abdominally. However, combining a cystoscopic with an abdominal approach may help to better identify the mucosal borders of the lesion to ensure complete excision without unnecessary resection of healthy bladder.

Foreign bodies in the bladder can occur by self-insertion, and patients often hide the symptoms owing to embarrassment. The foreign bodies act as a nidus for calculus formation when not detected for a long time. Foreign bodies can declare symptoms such as frequency, dysuria, nocturia, hematuria, urethrorrhagia, obstruction, or retention.

Introduction: Ureteral spasm, common with ureteral stents, is partially mediated by prostaglandins and may be suppressed by cyclooxygenase inhibitors like non-steroidal anti-inflammatory (NSAIDs). Practices currently vary widely for pain management in patients with ureteral stents, sometimes including opioids.
Objective: We aimed to determine if NSAID given prior to stent removal would reduce postoperative pain.
