[Temporary urethral stents ALLIUM BUS "BULBAR URETHRAL STENT" for the treatment of detrusor sphincter dyssynergia].

Introduction: The temporary prosthetic sphincterotomy is a possible treatment for neurologic detrusor sphincter dyssynergia (DSD). The purpose of the study was to verify the feasibility and effectiveness of the urethral stent (US) Temporary ALLIUM BUS "BULBAR URETHRAL STENT".

Patients And Methods: A prospective, non-comparative, single-center starting in 2015 was conducted. Were included patients over 18 years, with a neurologic DSD proved urodynamically for which medical treatment was not indicated or failed. The primary endpoint was the percentage of patients who had a voiding method considered as improved or much improved at 1 month and the feasibility of the procedure.

Results: From January to June 2015, 7 patients, (mean age 47.9 years [24-76 years]) were prospectively enrolled. One patient was lost to sight at one month and therefore excluded. The median follow-up was 8.1 months (1-10 months). All procedures were technically successful. At 1 month, there were 57% of grade 2 complications (Clavien-Dindo), 1 of 6 patients had a migration of the US. At one month, quality of life and the urologic situation was considered good in 3 patients, unchanged in 2 patients and decreased in 1 patient. The study was stopped after the inclusion of seven patients. At the date of the latest news, 5 of 6 patients had a migrated or an explanted US.

Conclusion: The temporary urethral stent ALLIUM BUS does not seem to be a possible surgical alternative for the treatment of detrusor sphincter dyssynergia.

Level Of Evidence: 4.
