The male anatomy is such that the proximal bulb lies anterior to the level of the obturator fossae. A transobturator sling passed outside-in and positioned at the most proximal portion of the bulb will move the latter proximally into the pelvic outlet when tensioned. The goal of this descriptive study was to demonstrate the mechanism of action of the male transobturator sling in the treatment of post-prostatectomy urinary incontinence.

AdVance™ (American Medical Systems, USA) is a male retro-urethral sling used to treat male urinary incontinence. This study reports the first results of 41 patients treated in Europe since February 2006.

PURPOSE:We analyzed the risk factors and incidence of secondary TCC of the remnant urothelium in women following radical cystectomy for TCC of the bladder.MATERIALS AND METHODS:A total of 85 women with a mean age of 64.5 years with clinically localized TCC of the bladder underwent radical cystectomy between 1992 and 2004. Orthotopic bladder substitution was performed in 46 females, while 39 underwent nonorthotopic urinary diversion. Of the entire cohort 22 (26%) patients underwent cystectomy for multifocal or recurrent TCC. Followup examinations were performed at 6-month intervals.RESULTS:Mean followup in the entire cohort was 49.8 months (median 42). Intraoperative frozen sections obtained from the urethra and distal ureters were negative for TCC and CIS in all patients. Four women (4.7%) had TCC in the remnant urothelium at a mean of 56 months postoperatively. These patients had undergone cystectomy for multifocal or recurrent TCC (4 of 22 or 18%). No secondary TCC was seen in the 63 patients with solitary invasive or nonrecurrent bladder cancer (p <0.05). Urethral recurrence was found in 2 patients (4.3%) 65 and 36 months after orthotopic neobladder surgery, respectively. In the orthotopic group 1 patient (2.1%) had an upper urinary tract tumor 76 months after surgery, while in the nonorthotopic group 1 (2.5%) was found to have an upper urinary tract tumor 48 months postoperatively.CONCLUSIONS:Recurrent or multifocal TCC may represent a risk factor for secondary TCC of the remnant urothelium after cystectomy. In our series all recurrent tumors were late recurrences (more than 36 months postoperatively). Because the rate of urethral recurrence in the current series corresponds to that reported in men (2% to 6%), urethra sparing cystectomy with orthotopic bladder replacement does not appear to compromise the oncological outcome in women.

To evaluate the extent of renal damage and loss of bladder function in four consecutive cases of endometriosis with urological involvement. We report of four cases that presented with asymptomatic hydronephrosis that already had severe infiltration of the bladder, ureters or both.
