INTRODUCTION: To report the characteristics and anti- @entity322 outcomes of @entity1 who fail to demonstrate @entity322 on intubated urodynamics (UDS). MATERIALS AND METHODS: From 2005 to 2013, the records of @entity1 who underwent UDS prior to artificial urinary sphincter (AUS) were reviewed. The histories, UDS, endoscopies, and anti- @entity322 outcomes of @entity1 who failed to demonstrate @entity322 on intubated UDS were recorded. In our UDS protocol, the urodynamic urethral catheter was removed and the UDS was repeated to elicit @entity322 without the urethral catheter. The valsalva leak point pressure (VLPP) was obtained via the rectal catheter in these @entity1 . RESULTS: All @entity1 were status post radical prostatectomy for @entity263 . Nineteen percent (32) of the study population (169) had non-demonstrable @entity322 on intubated UDS. Mean age at the time of UDS was 62 (range 48-81). All @entity1 demonstrated @entity322 on UDS upon removal of the urethral catheter. Their mean VLPP was 79.3 (SD 36.7). Fifty-six percent (18) of these @entity1 had an @entity850 ( @entity850 ) and 37.5% (12) had a history of radiotherapy treatment, of which six also had an @entity850 . Mean pads per day at the time of UDS was 4.6 (SD 2.9). At a mean follow up of 40.7 months (SD 24.7) from AUS placement, mean pads per day was 0.87 (SD 1.2). CONCLUSIONS: @entity1 who fail to demonstrate @entity322 on intubated UDS have a high rate of @entity850 and history of radiotherapy treatment, which is a known cause for urethra @entity82 and @entity2318 . Regardless, these @entity1 can achieve excellent anti- @entity322 outcomes.
