... daytime continence (90.9%), and 8 (72.7%) showed nocturnal continence at the last follow-up. Regarding postoperative potency, 10 of the 11 patients (90.9%) remained potent with or without oral medications, excluding one who had partial tumescence but did not follow our recommendations regarding medication...

... such as erectile function (EF) and continence recovery has been previously considered. This association stems from the direct proximity of ePLND to the pelvic plexus. In this paper, we aimed to critically examine an association of ePLND with functional outcomes in patients who underwent bilateral nerve-sparing RPE...

...Bin Yang; Fan Zhang; Chunlei Xiao; Jian Lu; Lulin Ma; Yi Huang Purpose: To evaluate the impact of preoperative magnetic resonance imaging anatomic features on urinary continence recovery after laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (LRP). Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 150 consecutive prostate...

With such patients, we advocate that bilateral implantation could achieve the same positive effect, but with half of the intensity used unilaterally, thereby offering a potential reduction in debilitating side effects.

... bladder substitution. After radical prostatectomy three were continent and one had grade I stress incontinence, and three achieved intercourse with intracavernous alprostadil injections. Follow-up after RC ranged between 27 and 42 months (median 29 months). At the 24-month follow-up visit after RC daily...

The patient underwent a successful transurethral resection of the tumor and at 6-month follow-up was continent and symptom-free. References 1. Roth JA: Reactive...

.... The contraction of this part of the musculature causes the closure of the bladder neck. Certainly the striated musculature does not play an important role of the continence in normal persons under resting conditions. However, in some pathological conditions, it must be taken into consideration. It must be noted...

...Tomohiko Koyanagi; Ichiro Tsuji An anatomical and neuropharmacological study of the urethra was performed in 19 patients after prostatectomy to investigate the mechanism of continence. Anatomically, the urethral segment responsible for the postprostatectomy continence was located distal to the open...

We showed the importance of the RBP to maintain full urinary continence in rabbits. Our results suggest that substantially higher continence rates can be achieved through...

..., and a decreased rate of seminal vesicle invasion. Recent data suggest the role of preservation of the seminal vesicle in improving continence and/or potency. We describe our preliminary experience with seminal-sparing, unilateral nerve-sparing retropubic radical prostatectomy. Patients and Methods: 21 selected...

... complications were reported systematically and continence was evaluated in a standardized manner. Results: One patient died perioperatively (2%). Early complications occurred in 56.9%. They were related to the neobladder in 21.6% and unrelated to the neobladder in 47.1%. 31.4% experienced complications...
