Definitions
- This device relates to an implant for the treatment of genuine stress urinary incontinence in the female.
- Stress incontinence is urine loss that occurs when sudden increase in intra-abdominal pressure force urine past the urethral sphincter mechanism. This usually occurs during conditions of physical activity which stress the bladder outlet to such a degree that it can no longer remain closed, resulting a momentary urine loss. This is a common and distressing condition.
- This implantable continence device consists of a hydraulic and a mechanical component.
- the hydraulic component comprises of two retropubic subperitoneal fluid filled balloon reservoirs 1 which communicates with a periurethral cuff 2 to form a complete hydraulic system.
- a fluid outlet channel 4 At the upper end of the periurethral cuff 2 there is a fluid outlet channel 4 to regulate the biocompatible fluid in the hydraulic system.
- the mechanical component comprises of two strips of biocompatible mesh extending sideways from the base of the periurethral cuff 2 to form two wings 3. Both wings are transfixed to pelvic fascia and white line of the pelvis using non absorbable material.
- the base of the periurethral cuff 2 and the necks of the balloon reservoirs are reinforced to achieve non kink properties. Both components are made of suitable biocompatible material and the hydraulic system is filled with biocompatible fluid.
- FIG 1 Shows the basic components of the device.
- Figure 2 Shows the basic components seen from Right side.
- Figure 3 Shows a cross section of the device at the proximal end of the device.
- Figure 4 Shows a sagittal section of the female pelvis with the device in situ.
- both balloon reservoirs 1 occupy the retropubic space and extends subperitonealy beyond the upper margin of the symphysis pubis.
- the periurethral cuff 2 surrounds the posterior and lateral aspects of the bladder neck and proximal urethra.
- the wings 3 are transfixed to the endopelvic fascia and to the white line of the pelvis to form a platform.
- the fluid outlet channel 4 is buried subcutaneously in the suprapubic area. The activation of the device could be done later by inserting biocompatible fluid via the fluid outlet channel 4.
- the resting urethral pressure could also be increased to the required levels by adjusting the pressure in the hydraulic system, especially for patients who have higher grades of stress incontinence due to intrinsic sphinteric weakness.
- the periurethral cuff 2 could be lengthened to cover distal parts of the urethra so that increased mtra-abdominal pressure is transmitted to more distal parts of the urethra. This would act as a second line of defence to prevent the escape of any urine which happens to enter the urethra.
- the elevation of the urethra and bladder neck could be achieved by increasing the outer diameter of the periurethral cuff 2.
- this device influences all the known mechanisms of continence by enhancing the transmission of increased intra-abdominal pressure to bladder neck and proximal urethra during stress, prevention of herniation of posterior urethra and bladder neck, and improving the resting urethral pressure. Summation of these mechanisms could ultimately increase the patient's margin for incontinence and push her above the threshold for urinary leakage. The contribution from each component of the device to gain continence could be determined by prior urodynamic investigations. The fluid pressure of the hydraulic system could be readjusted periodically to maintain the optimal resting urethral pressure. The implant could be used as a primary treatment or as a secondary procedure following unsuccessful primary surgery.
