J. Kowalczyk, J. J. Mulcahy] Abstract:: Persistent urinary incontinence after failed surgical repair can be successfully treated with the artificial urinary sphincter. The English literature was reviewed from 1985 to 1996. Eleven articles and abstracts addressing placement of the artificial urinary sphincter in women were identified. Discussion includes two operative techniques. Success rates were in the range of 91%-99%. Erosion rates were 7%-29%. The artificial urinary sphincter is an effective treatment for women failing other procedures. Appropriate work-up and diagnosis for type III stress urinary incontinence is crucial.
