Secondary placement of adjustable continence therapy (ProACT™) using open perineal technique : Case report of ProACT placement in a man with a devastated urethra following pelvic trauma and multiple AUS erosions

© 2023 The Authors..

Adjustable continence therapy (ProACT) is an underutilized treatment option in men with stress urinary incontinence. The device is placed using a perineal percutaneous tunneled approach. We demonstrate a salvage technique for ProACT placement in a man with a devastated urethra following pelvic trauma and multiple artificial urinary sphincter (AUS) erosions who failed a tunneled approach. Our novel technique has utility in those at high risk for intra-operative trocar injury to the urinary tract with a tunneled approach. An open approach may also be a viable option in high-risk patients who have failed a conventional ProACT approach, male sling, or AUS.
