title: [A new method for the surgical treatment of urinary incontinence following surgery of the prostate].
abstract: A new method is reported for operative treatment of urine incontinence, following transversal adenomectomy and transurethral resection of the prostate gland. The operative technique is described in detail. Its basic point is placing of a small "Ampoxen" ball over the urethral bulbus. Disappearance of the incontinence after such an operation is due both to the compression on the bulbar part of the urethra and to the formation of connective tissue, which proliferates into the sheet being placed. Twelve patients from 62 to 75 years of age were treated in this way. In 10 of them the immediate and the late results are considered very good. Incontinence disappeared until the 3. day after removing the indwelling catheter. In the other two patients the result is considered satisfactory. The encouraging results make the authors prefer the method which they suggest for postoperative urine incontinence.
