Pulsating electromagnetic field stimulation of urothelial cells induces apoptosis and diminishes necrosis: new insight to magnetic therapy in urology.

Only registered users can translate articles

The evidence of electromagnetic therapy (EMT) efficacy in stress and/or urge urinary incontinence, as well as in detrusor overactivity is generally lacking in the literature. The potential EMT action of neuromuscular tissue depolarization has been described. Because there is no data on the influence

Penile Gangrene and Necrosis Leading to Death Secondary to Strangulation by Condom Catheter.

Only registered users can translate articles

Condom catheters are widely used in the management of male urinary incontinence, bedridden patients, and geriatric population. They are considered to be safe; however they are associated with serious complications in case of an incorrect use. We report a dramatic case of penile strangulation by

Urethral necrosis and proximal urethro-vaginal fistula resulting from tension-free vaginal tape.

Only registered users can translate articles

Urethral erosion is an uncommon complication after sub-urethral sling placement using the TVT procedure. Strangulation necrosis of the entire distal urethra with a fistulous connection between proximal urethra and vagina is a devastating complication that has not been previously reported, resulting

Penile strangulation and necrosis due to condom catheter.

Only registered users can translate articles

Condom catheters are often used in the management of male urinary incontinence, and are considered to be safe. As condom catheters are placed on the male genitalia, sometimes adequate care is not taken after placement owing to poor medical care of debilitated patients and feelings of embarrassment

[Necrosis of the skin of the penis as a complication of the use of a urine collector].

Only registered users can translate articles

We illustrate a case of penile skin necrosis in a patient suffering from urinary incontinence caused by a secondary neurogenic bladder that, in turn, results from a spinal cord injury. The skin necrosis developed out of continuous pressure from the condom catheter. We report the case bearing into

Nonsurgical, radiofrequency collagen denaturation for stress urinary incontinence: retrospective 3-year evaluation.

Only registered users can translate articles

Transurethral radiofrequency collagen denaturation, a nonsurgical treatment for stress urinary incontinence, reduces regional dynamic tissue compliance without causing tissue necrosis or gross tissue shrinkage, unlike transvaginal radiofrequency tissue ablation. This retrospective study evaluated

A case of urinary incontinence by hydroxychloroquine in a geriatric patient.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disorder characterized by persistent synovitis and systemic inflammation. Genetic factors account for approximately 50% of cases of rheumatoid arthritis and environmental factors include smoking. Urinary incontinence may occur as a medication adverse

Treatment of urinary incontinence with AMS 800 artificial urinary sphincter.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Urinary incontinence has a significant impact on the quality of life for patients. The introduction of the AMS 800 artificial urinary sphincter by American Medical Systems (Minnetonka, MN, USA) has revolutionized the treatment of urinary incontinence due to pure sphincteric

Nonsurgical transurethral radiofrequency treatment of stress urinary incontinence in women.

Only registered users can translate articles

A transurethral radiofrequency collagen denaturation system was recently approved by the US FDA for nonsurgical, outpatient treatment of women with stress urinary incontinence associated with urethral hypermobility. Controlled radiofrequency energy applied through a transurethral probe heats

Stress urinary incontinence in women: what options lie between traditional therapies and surgery?

Only registered users can translate articles

Stress urinary incontinence affects women of all ages, becoming more prevalent with increasing age. While many nonsurgical therapies are available for the treatment of stress urinary incontinence, options are limited for women who fail to respond to these therapies yet may not be candidates for, or

[Experience with the Kaufman prosthesis in the treatment of postoperative urinary incontinence in the male].

Only registered users can translate articles

22 patients had urinary incontinence plastic surgery according to Kaufman. Good and satisfactory results (n = 14) are to be expected only in cases of genuine stress incontinence following iatrogenic lesion of the sphincteral mechanism. Preoperative urodynamic clarification is obligatory for

Tumor necrosis factor-alpha inhibits differentiation of myogenic cells in human urethral rhabdosphincter.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE To examine the inhibitory effects of tumor necrosis factor-α on myogenic differentiation of human urethral rhabdosphincter cells. METHODS A rhabdosphincter sample was obtained from a patient who underwent total cystectomy. To expand the lifespan of the primary cultured cells,

Growth inhibition and apoptosis induction by tumor necrosis factor-α in human urethral rhabdosphincter satellite cells.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE A decrease in the human urethral rhabdosphincter is reported with aging due to apoptosis, which may be a cause of urinary incontinence in the elderly population. To explore this mechanism we investigated the effects of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (Upstate, Temecula, California) on human

Inflammatory and tissue remodeling urinary biomarkers before and after mid urethral sling surgery for stress urinary incontinence.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE Urinary biomarkers were measured in women at baseline and 1 year after surgery for stress urinary incontinence, and associations with clinicodemographic covariates and outcomes were analyzed. METHODS Preoperative and postoperative urine specimens from 150 women were assayed for

[Study of morphological changes in levator ani muscle of patients with stress urinary incontinence or pelvic organ prolapse].

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE To investigate the morphological characteristics of levator ani muscle in patients with stress urinary incontinence (SUI) or pelvic organ prolapse (POP) and to explore whether the alterations could contribute to pathogenesis of the diseases. METHODS Biopsy specimens of levator ani muscle
