Abstract
Transcorporal artificial urinary sphincter (AUS) cuff placement has been suggested as an option to reduce the risk of urethral erosion in patients with fragile urethras and to potentially reduce the rate of erosions/atrophy in the primary implant patient. Ourprevious published data demonstrated > 50% urethral erosions occur within two years of implantation. Therefore, we sought to evaluate if transcorporal (TC) AUS implantation in the primary, non-fragile urethra implant patient would reduce complication rates compared to primary non-transcorporal (nTC) AUS implant patients with a minimum of 2 years follow-up.
