summary

Incontinence is the worst complication after prostate and urethra operations. Implantation of artificial sphincter is the best and standard
treatment. The improvement of surgical technique and excellent results of women slings, are the reason for new male tapes to
come back. We present a case of patient with post-prostatectomy incontinence successfully treated with the transobdurator sling.
