Male Incontinence (AMS Prosthesis)
Male incontinence treated with AMS (American Medical Systems) prostheses offers a sophisticated solution for men suffering from urinary incontinence, providing a way to regain control over urinary function.
Every human being is different. The surgery process and procedures we offer may change depending on your case.
What is Male Incontinence(AMS Prosthesis)?
Male incontinence, particularly addressed with AMS (American Medical Systems) prosthesis, refers to the use of specialized medical devices designed to help men manage urinary incontinence, a condition characterized by the involuntary leakage of urine. Unlike the malleable penile prosthesis used for erectile dysfunction, AMS incontinence devices, such as the AMS 800™ Urinary Control System, are specifically engineered to restore bladder control. These devices typically involve the surgical implantation of an artificial urinary sphincter or a male sling system around the urethra. The artificial sphincter mimics the function of a healthy sphincter, allowing the user to control urination manually, while sling systems provide support to the urethra, helping to prevent urine leakage.
Who is suitable for Male Incontinence(AMS Prosthesis)?
While considering whether you are suitable or not for the male incontinence procedure, we need to consider these factors:
- Patients need to be close to the ideal body weight.
- Candidates should be in good physical health to minimize the risk of surgery and anesthesia.
- Candidates are men who suffer from urinary incontinence.
- A good candidate must have realistic expectations about the results.
- Emotional readiness and a positive outlook are important for a successful outcome.
- Ideal candidates understand the procedure, including risks, benefits, and long-term care of the implant, rather than on temporary feelings or external pressures.
- Candidates need to be fully grown adults, as maturity ensures that the body, including the urinary system, has fully developed and will not undergo significant changes that could affect the device's function or suitability.
The key point is to check every patient's unique needs, to decide whether they are suitable or not.
Which problems can be solved with Male Incontinence(AMS Prosthesis)?

Important information!
- Ensure your surgeon is board-certified in urology and has experience with these procedures.
- Undergo a thorough medical evaluation to ensure you're fit for the surgery. This may include lab tests and a pre-surgical physical examination.
- Quit smoking at least 4-6 weeks before and after surgery as it may create complications and alter the healing process.
- Achieve and maintain a stable weight before surgery. Significant weight fluctuations can affect the results.
- Eat a balanced diet rich in vitamins and minerals to support healing.
Before the procedure, you will have a consultation with your doctor to discuss your goals, outcomes. After agreeing on the details, our medical staff schedule your operation day.
- The surgeon will mark the area around the urethra and possibly the scrotum to outline the incision sites, ensuring precision and aiming for the best possible functional and aesthetic outcomes.
- The procedure is performed under general anesthesia, ensuring the patient is asleep and pain-free throughout the surgery.
- Depending on the specific AMS device being implanted, an incision is typically made in the perineal area (the space between the base of the penis and the anus) or in the lower abdomen. This provides access to the urethra and the area around it for device placement.
- For an artificial urinary sphincter (AUS), the cuff component of the device is positioned around the urethra, and the pump is placed within the scrotum. The pressure-regulating balloon is implanted in the lower abdomen or pelvic area. This arrangement allows manual control over urination, mimicking the natural process.
- The surgeon ensures that all components o f the AMS device are correctly positioned and securely connected to enable effective urinary control while minimizing the risk of displacement or complications.
- Incisions are carefully closed with sutures that are selected to minimize scarring and promote optimal healing. The choice of suturing technique and material may vary based on the incision size, location, and surgeon's preference.
However it's crucial to follow post-operative care instructions provided by the surgeon to ensure optimal healing and results.
Adhering to the specific guidelines provided by your surgeon is crucial in order to prevent any complications and ensure successful results.
- Use the prescribed pain medications as directed by your surgeon to manage the pain and discomfort in the days following the surgery.
- To minimize swelling and discomfort, consider sleeping with the lower body elevated. Using pillows to support this position can help reduce tension in the surgical area.
- In the initial days post-surgery, take care when moving to avoid stress on the treated area. Gentle walking is encouraged to promote blood circulation, but avoid any sudden movements that might affect the healing process.
- Your surgeon may recommend wearing a supportive garment around the surgical site. This can help reduce swelling, support the healing tissues, and assist in shaping the area post-procedure.
- Focus on eating foods rich in vitamins and minerals, especially those that promote wound healing, such as proteins, vitamin C, and zinc. Stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water.
- Avoid strenuous activities, heavy lifting, and exercise until your surgeon gives you the green light.
- Follow your surgeon's advice on bathing and showering. Keeping the incision area clean and dry is essential for preventing infection.
Following your surgeon's post-operative instructions is really important for having the best results.
