Abstract

The artificial urinary sphincter (AUS) is the gold standard for managing male stress urinary incontinence, offering excellent success rates and high patient satisfaction. However, despite decades of clinical experience and well-established long-term outcomes, AUS placement remains a technically demanding procedure with a range of potential perioperative complications. This article reviews the diagnosis and management of the most common AUS-related complications encountered in the perioperative period.
