Abstract

Patient selection in all aspects of urology is of utmost importance, and this fact is no different when discussing male stress urinary incontinence (SUI). As nicely outlined in the editorial comment, it seems that the bulk of available literature would support the use of artificial urinary sphincters (AUS) in men with severe SUI. This device has the longest follow-up data available and has proven to be efficacious even in the most incontinent patients. Because of this, we specifically counsel patients with large volume incontinence toward AUS placement.
