Male Stress Urinary Incontinence.

Male stress urinary incontinence most commonly presents secondary to prostate treatment of prostate cancer or benign prostatic hyperplasia, although it can be seen following trauma or secondary to neurologic dysfunction. Patient selection is supremely important when choosing the appropriate nonoperative or surgical treatment. Although most patients prefer the passive mechanism of adjustable balloon devices or slings, the artificial urinary sphincter provides the most efficacious and durable results with regard to patient satisfaction and continence. Changes in prostate treatment modalities and anti-incontinence device development will offer more surgical options for patients in the future.
