Long-term assessment of the safety and effectivity of the mini-jupette sling: 5-year follow-up of the original series.

ABSTRACT:

Background

In 2017, a prospective multicenter, multinational, investigational pilot study was conducted examining outcomes using a novel surgical technique, the Mini-Jupette sling, for the management of erectile dysfunction (ED) patients with climacturia and/or minimal stress urinary incontinence (SUI) after prostate procedures. Climacturia has been reported in up to 64% of patients following radical prostatectomy (RP). We sought to report the 5-year outcomes from this original cohort to assess long-term safety and effectivity of the mini-jupette sling in the treatment of ED and concomitant mild SUI and/or climacturia.

Methods

This is a single-arm, multicenter, retrospective, observational study. We identified patients who were enrolled in the previous multicenter study with
