Herein we attempt to characterize and identify potential risk factors for POUR after IPP. METHODS: We reviewed all patients who underwent IPP implantation by a single surgeon (JS) from January 2014 to December 2018 with data regarding POUR. A Foley catheter was placed at the start of each case and the bladder emptied prior to removal at the end of the procedure. Post-void residuals (PVR) were checked after the first void post-operatively, and indwelling catheterization or intermittent catheterization performed for PVR >350 mL or symptomatic retention at lesser volumes. We compared patients who experienced post-operative urinary retention (POUR), defined as need for urinary catheterization at any time postoperatively, to patients who did not experience post-operative urinary retention (N-POUR). Patients were excluded if they underwent a concomitant procedure or had a diagnosis of neurogenic bladder. RESULTS: A total of 200 patients comprised the study population, of whom 53 (26.5%) experienced POUR and 147 (73.5%) did not. There were no differences between groups with regards to age, race, BMI, ASA, or other comorbidities (Table 1). Patients who experienced POUR had a median retained volume of 546 cc (25-75 IQR 378.0-693.5 cc). Among men with POUR, 33 (62.3%) had resolution of their urinary retention prior to discharge, while the remainder 20 (37.7%) were discharged with a Foley catheter. The rate of POUR was significantly lower in patients with a prior history of radical prostatectomy (10.7% vs 32.6%, p<0.001). On multivariable analysis, absent history of prostatectomy (OR 2.9, 95%CI 1.1-8.0, p=0.03) was found to be an independent risk factor for POUR. CONCLUSIONS: In our series, ∼25% of patients undergoing implantation of IPP developed POUR requiring catheterization. It is likely that bladder outlet obstruction and/or detrusor underactivity—which share similar risk factors as vasculogenic ED—result in POUR following IPP placement. Clinicians should carefully counsel patients regarding their risk.
