How is Male Urinary Incontinence Treatment Applied?

Surgical procedures to treat male urinary incontinence are artificial sphincter and male sling surgery. Stress urinary incontinence is a very uncomfortable condition for many men. This situation may develop after surgical interventions such as prostate surgery or may occur suddenly.

Male Sling Surgery

The male sling procedure is a minimally invasive surgery. It involves placing a soft net sling under the urethra to reposition the urethra and provide support to the surrounding muscles. This functions to keep the urethra closed, especially when coughing, sneezing, or lifting. Thus, urinary incontinence is prevented.

What are the Benefits of Male Sling Surgery?

  • Male sling procedure is an outpatient surgery.
  • Requires only a small incision in the perineum.
  • Recovery time is quite short.
  • Catheter time is short.

Male Artificial Urinary Sphincter Surgery

Artificial urinary sphincter is a surgical treatment for severe urinary incontinence. Artificial urinary sphincter is currently the gold standard, meaning it is a proven treatment.

Artificial urinary sphincter is a device with three components. It treats even the most severe urinary incontinence. The artificial urinary sphincter has a cuff that surrounds the urethra to keep the urethra closed and prevent urine from passing through. When the patient wants to drain their urine, a pump in the scrotum is pressed and the urine flows. The cuff then fills to re-seal the urethra to prevent urine from leaking out.

Patient satisfaction is generally high after artificial urinary sphincter and male sling operations for urinary incontinence.

What are the Benefits of Male Artificial Urinary Sphincter Procedure?

  • Male Artificial Urinary Sphincter surgery is an outpatient surgery.
  • Requires only a small incision in the root of the penis.
  • Recovery time is slightly longer.
  • Its catheter time is one night.
  • Its effectiveness is higher than sling surgeries.
