Abstract

Purpose of Review: To review the most recent literature on the treatment of post-prostatectomy incontinence. Recent Findings: New technology and implementation of surgical devices have resulted in a myriad of treatment options for men suffering post-prostatectomy incontinence. However, many of these have widely varied results. Summary: The treatment of post-prostatectomy incontinence is consistent and continues to expand with more devices being introduced in the market. However, optimization of patient outcomes and determination of which devices work best will be required. To date, there are few randomized controlled trials for the treatment of post-prostatectomy incontinence.
