What this Trial Is About

Stress urinary incontinence can occur after treatments like prostatectomy or radiation therapy for prostate cancer and may cause significant problems. This research is observing men who experience this condition to learn more about treatments using male slings or artificial urinary sphincters. Currently, artificial urinary sphincters are a common treatment, but they can have complications, so male slings have been suggested for milder cases as an alternative. The study follows male patients treated with one of four devices: the AMS-800 artificial urinary sphincter or one of the male slings—AdVance/AdvanceXP, VIRTUE, or INVANCE. The research collects detailed information before surgery, including bladder tests and clinical parameters, and describes the surgical techniques used. Continence is evaluated three months after surgery to avoid effects from initial swelling, and long-term outcomes like effectiveness and complications are tracked. Participants undergo regular follow-up visits with tests such as the 24-hour pad weight test and a urinary incontinence questionnaire every three months during the first year and every six months thereafter. Researchers monitor continence success, symptom changes, and quality of life over up to 15 years. This careful follow-up helps assess how well the treatments work and any late complications that may develop.
