Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Devastating complications of the bladder outlet resulting from prostate cancer treatments are relatively uncommon. However, the combination of the high incidence of prostate cancer and patient longevity after treatment have raised awareness of adverse outcomes deteriorating patients' quality of life. This narrative review discusses the diagnostic work-up and management options for bladder outlet obstruction resulting from prostate cancer treatments, including those that require urinary diversion. RECENT FINDINGS The devastated bladder outlet can be a consequence of the treatment of benign conditions, but more frequently from complications of pelvic cancer treatments. Regardless of etiology, the initial treatment ladder involves endoluminal options such as dilation and direct vision internal urethrotomy, with or without intralesional injection of anti-fibrotic agents. If these conservative strategies fail, surgical reconstruction should be considered. Although surgical reconstruction provides the best prospect of durable success, reconstructive procedures are also associated with serious complications. In the worst circumstances, such as prior radiotherapy, failed reconstruction, devastated bladder outlet with end-stage bladders, or patient's severe comorbidities, reconstruction may neither be realistic nor justified. Urinary diversion with or without cystectomy may be the best option for these patients. Thorough patient counseling before treatment selection is of utmost importance. Outcomes and repercussions on quality of life vary extensively with management options. Meticulous preoperative diagnostic evaluation is paramount in selecting the right treatment strategy for each individual patient. The risk of bladder outlet obstruction, and its severest form, devastated bladder outlet, after treatment of prostate cancer is not negligible, especially following radiation. Management includes endoluminal treatment, open or robot-assisted laparoscopic reconstruction, and urinary diversion in the worst circumstances, with varying success rates.

Abstract
Bladder neck contracture is a recognised complication associated with radical prostatectomy. The management can be challenging, especially when refractory to initial intervention strategies. For the patient, the burden of disease is high and continence status cannot be overlooked. This review serves to provide an overview of the management of this recognised clinical pathology. Consideration needs to be given to minimally invasive approaches such as endoscopic incision, injectables, implantable devices as well as major reconstructive surgery where the condition persists. For the latter, this can involve open and robotic surgery as well as use of grafts and artificial sphincter surgery. These elements underline the need for a tailored and a patient centred approach.

Current evidence of robotic-assisted surgery use in functional reconstructive and neuro-urology. Ther Adv Urol 2023; 15:17562872231213727.

Abstract
The use of robot-assisted technology has been widely adopted in urological oncological surgery and its benefits have been well established. In recent years, robotic technology has also been used in several functional reconstructive and neuro-urology (FRNU) procedures. The aim of this review was to evaluate the current evidence in the use of robotic technology in the field of FRNU. We performed a PubMed-based literature search between July and August 2022. The keywords we included were 'robotic assisted', 'ureteric reimplantation', 'cystoplasty', 'ileal conduit', 'neobladder', 'sacrocolpopexy', 'colposuspension', 'artificial urinary sphincter', 'genitourinary fistula' and 'posterior urethral stenoses'. We identified the latest available evidence in the use of robotic technology in specific FRNU procedures such as the reconstruction of the ureters, bladder and urinary sphincter, urinary diversion, and repair of genitourinary prolapse and fistula. We found that there is a lack of prospective studies to assess the robotic-assisted approach in the field of FRNU. Despite this, the advantages that robotic technology can bring to the field of FRNU are evident, including better ergonomics and visual field, less blood loss and shorter hospital stays. There is therefore a need for further prospective studies with larger patient numbers and longer follow-up periods to establish the reproducibility of these results and the long-term efficacy of the procedures, as well as the impact on patient outcomes. Common index procedures and a standardized approach to these procedures should be identified to enhance training.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate surgical outcomes stratified by posterior urethral obstruction (PUO) etiology in men undergoing definitive robotic posterior urethral reconstruction. METHODS A retrospective, single surgeon, review of men undergoing robotic posterior urethral reconstruction between 2018 and 2020 was performed. Differences in complications, reconstructive success (no further intervention), and urinary continence by PUO etiology were assessed. RESULTS Robotic posterior urethral reconstruction was performed in 21 men. PUO etiology included BPH treatment in 5 (24%), prostatectomy in 10 (48%), radiation in 5 (24%), and trauma in 1 (5%). Median number of prior endoscopic treatments was 3 (BPH), 3 (prostatectomy), and 2 (radiation) with an average time between obstruction and reconstruction of 9, 12, and 15 months (p=0.52). Median length of stay after reconstruction was 2, 1, and 2 days (p=0.45). 30-day complications occurred in 0%, 20%, 40% (p =0.19). Post-reconstruction re-intervention was necessary in 0%, 10%, 80% (p =0.004). Ultimately, anatomic success was achieved in 100%, 90%, 80% (p=0.63), with functional success rates of 100%, 100%, 60% (p=0.035). Median postoperative pad/day usage was 0,0, 10.5 (p<0.001), and ultimately 0%, 30%, 80% (p=0.013) underwent artificial urinary sphincter placement. CONCLUSION Endoscopic treatment of posterior urethral obstruction (PUO) secondary to benign and malignant prostate conditions is associated with a high incidence of treatment failure. Robotic posterior urethral reconstruction is a safe and effective surgical solution for men with PUO in the absence of pelvic radiation. Men with pelvic radiation appear to be at increased risk of complications, PUO recurrence, and clinically significant stress urinary incontinence.

Abstract
Bladder outlet obstruction following treatment of pelvic cancer, predominantly prostate cancer, occurs in 1-8% of patients. The high incidence of prostate cancer combined with the long-life expectancy after treatment has increased concerns with cancer survivorship care. However, despite increased oncological cure rates, these adverse events do occur, compromising patients' quality of life. Non-traumatic obstruction of the posterior urethra and bladder neck include membranous and prostatic urethral stenosis and bladder neck stenosis (also known as contracture). The devastated bladder outlet can result from benign conditions, such as neurogenic dysfunction, trauma, iatrogenic causes, or more frequently from complications of oncologic treatment, such as prostate, bladder and rectum. Most posterior urethral stenoses may respond to endoluminal treatments such as dilatation, direct vision internal urethrotomy, and occasionally urethral stents. Although surgical reconstruction offers the best chance of durable success, these reconstructive options are fraught with severe complications and, therefore, are far from being ideal. In patients with prior RT, failed reconstruction, densely fibrotic and/or necrotic and calcified posterior urethra, refractory incontinence or severe comorbidities, reconstruction may not be either feasible or recommended. In these cases, urinary diversion with or without cystectomy is usually required. This review aims to discuss the diagnostic evaluation and treatment options for patients with bladder outlet obstruction with a special emphasis on patients unsuitable for reconstruction of the posterior urethra and requiring urinary diversion.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Vesicourethral anastomotic stenosis (VUAS) is frequently seen after prostate surgery because of various operative and postoperative factors. In this study, we aimed to present our results of perineoscopic bladder neck reconstruction, which is a new technique of the perineal approach in the treatment of patients with VUAS after prostate cancer surgery. MATERIAL AND METHODS Sixteen consecutive patients who underwent perineoscopic bladder neck reconstruction in our clinic between July 2017 and March 2019 were included in the study. Demographic characteristics, surgical history, postoperative continence status, and additional treatment requirements were recorded. Perineoscopic surgery is defined as the visualization of the surgical site with instruments used in laparoscopy and the surgeon performing the entire operative procedure through the screen. RESULTS The mean number of preoperative endoscopic bladder neck resections of the patients was 7±5.1, with a history of suprapubic cystostomy in 7 (43.7%) and radiotherapy in 5 (31.2%) patients before surgery. The mean surgical time was 126.2±13.1 min. The mean follow-up period was 13.2±6.8 months, and the success rate was 81.25%. During follow-up, two (12.5%) patients received perineoscopic re-do reconstruction because of stricture recurrence, and one (6.2%) patient was included in a urethral dilatation program. CONCLUSION Improving visualization and ergonomics with the perineoscopic approach can increase the success rate of bladder neck reconstruction in comparison with the standard approach. In addition, the lack of need for expanded dissection (corporal separation, inferior pubectomy) reduces postoperative complication rates.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Posterior urethral obstruction (PUO) from prostate surgery for benign and malignant conditions poses a significant reconstructive challenge. Endoscopic management demonstrates only modest success and often definitive reconstructive solutions are necessary to limit morbidity and firmly establish posterior urethral continuity. This often demands a combined abdominoperineal approach, pubic bone resection, and even sacrifice of the external urinary sphincter and anterior urethral blood supply. Recently, a robotic-assisted approach has been described. Enhanced instrument dexterity, magnified visualization, and adjunctive measures to assess tissue quality may enable the reconstructive surgeon to engage posterior strictures deep within the confines of the narrow male pelvis and optimize functional outcomes. The purpose of this review is to review the literature regarding endoscopic, open, and robotic management outcomes for the treatment of PUO, and provide an updated treatment algorithm based upon location and complexity of the stricture. RECENT FINDINGS Contingent upon etiology, small case series suggest that robotic bladder neck reconstruction has durable reconstructive outcomes with acceptable rates of incontinence in carefully selected patients. SUMMARY Initial reports suggest that robotic bladder neck reconstruction for recalcitrant PUO may offer novel reconstructive solutions and durable function outcomes in select patients.

Abstract
Vesico-urethral anastomotic stenosis is a well-known sequela after radical prostatectomy for prostate cancer and has significant impact on quality of life. This review aims to summarize contemporary therapeutical approaches and to give an overview of the available evidence regarding endoscopic interventions and open reconstruction. Initial treatment may include dilation, incision or transurethral resection. In treatment-refractory stenoses, open reconstruction via an abdominal (retropubic), transperineal or combined abdominoperineal approach is a viable option with high success rates. All of the open surgical procedures are generally accompanied by a high risk of developing de novo incontinence and patients may need further interventions. In such cases, subsequent artificial urinary sphincter implantation is the most common treatment option with the best available evidence.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Bladder neck contracture (BNC) is a well-recognized complication following radical prostatectomy (RP). This problem may recur after failing initial endoscopic management. This study evaluated the efficacy of intralesional steroid injection combined with bladder neck incision (BNI) for recurrent BNC following RP. METHODS Between November 2011 and March 2018, data from all men who underwent BNI and intralesional steroid injection for recurrent BNC from a single regional center were collected. BNC was diagnosed endoscopically and identified as recurrent if having previously failed endoscopic management with BNI alone. Follow up was initially performed at 3 months with an International Prostate Symptom Score and urinary flow rate. Patients were noted to be recurrence-free when discharged from follow up or after having undergone a continence procedure indicating stability of the contracture. RESULTS Thirty patients underwent BNI and intralesional steroid injection for recurrent BNC over the study period. All patients had received prior endoscopic incision of BNC without lasting success. Seventy percent (21/30) of patients were recurrence-free post-procedure, and this increased to 83.3% (25/30) after a repeat procedure in four patients. All five patients who had previous salvage radiotherapy had their recurrent BNC successfully managed with one BNI and intralesional steroid injection. The mean follow up was 33.4 months (range 7-75). There were no adverse events recorded. CONCLUSIONS BNI combined with injection of intralesional steroids is a simple, cost-effective intervention which requires no specialist equipment/skills outside the realm of a general urologist. It is safe and has an excellent success rate.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To analyze the morbidity of the practice of daily self-dilatation (SD) in patients undergoing total prostatectomy, who have had artificial urinary sphincter (AUS) for urinary incontinence (UI) and who have had a recurrence of endoscopically treated vesicourethral anastomosis (VUS) stenosis. MATERIALS AND METHOD One hundred and thirty-eight patients with SUA for urinary incontinence (UI) fitted between 1998 and 2007 were divided into two groups. Thirty-five patients have had used self-dilatation (SD) for recurrent anastomotic stenosis (SD group) and 103 patients did not perform SD (non-SD group). These two groups were compared for explantation rate (erosion-infection), revision rate (urethral atrophy and mechanical failure) and 2-year functional results. The uni- and multivariate statistical analysis taken into consideration confounding factors such as age and radiotherapy history. The functional assessment was done by the validated IQoL, Ditrovie and MHU tests. RESULTS Patients in both groups were comparable except for the importance of urinary incontinence assessed by PAD test and questionnaires. The explantation rate was significantly higher in the "SD" group (28.5% vs 7.77%) and (OR=4.68, 95% CI [1.490-15.257], P=0.006). There was no significant difference between the two groups in the surgical revision rate (32% vs 20%, OR=0.44, P=0.09). The functional results at two years did not show any significant difference. CONCLUSIONS The use of self-dilation for recurrence of stenosis of vesicourethral anastomosis after prostatectomy exposes patients fitted with an SUA to a higher explantation rate.

Abstract
Bladder neck stenosis (BNS) after simple prostatectomy and vesicourethral anastomosis stenosis (VUAS) after radical prostatectomy for prostate cancer are common sequelae. However, the two entities differ in their pathology, anatomy and their surgical results. VUAS has an incidence of 0.2-28%. Commonly, VUAS occurs within the first 2 years after surgery. Initial therapy should be performed endourologically: dilatation, (laser) incision or resection. After three unsuccessful treatment attempts, open reconstruction should be considered. Different surgical approaches (abdominal, perineal, abdominoperineal) have been described. All are associated with good success rates. However, they are accompanied by high rates of urinary incontinence. Incontinence can be treated safely by implantation of an artificial urinary sphincter. The incidence of BNS is around 5% for all types of surgery for benign prostate hyperplasia. It occurs within the first 2 years after surgery. Initial treatment should be performed endourologically. In case of recalcitrant BNS, open reconstruction is indicated. The YV-plasty is an established procedure, and the T‑plasty represents a modification. Success rates of both procedures are high. Robot-assisted reconstructive procedures have been described for both VUAS and BNS.

Abstract
Outlet procedures for benign prostatic hypertrophy, prostate cancer therapy, and trauma can result in stenosis of the posterior urethra, a complex reconstructive problem that often fails conservative endoscopic management, necessitating more aggressive and definitive reconstructive solutions. This is typically done with an open technique which may require a combined abdominoperineal approach, pubectomy, and/or flap interposition. Implementation of a robot-assisted platform affords several potential advantages including smaller incisions, magnified field of vision, near-infrared fluorescence (NIRF) imaging to characterize tissue integrity, enhanced dexterity within the deep and narrow confines of the male pelvis, sparing of the perineal planes, and shorter convalescence. Herein, we describe important surgical considerations for robotic posterior urethral reconstruction.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Bladder neck sclerosis is a rare late complication of transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP). Endoscopic resection or incision of the bladder neck is usually successful in the management of such cases. In some cases, even repeated endoscopic management always followed with recurrent sclerosis. In these cases, the Y-V plasty of the bladder neck provides a final option of treatment. MATERIAL AND METHODS Retrospective evaluation of 24 patients who underwent Y-V plasty of the bladder neck from 2007 to 2014 was performed. All patients had TURP once and presented after at least 2 failed attempts of endoscopic management. The principle of this technique is to insert a V-shaped part of the bladder wall into the fibrosed bladder neck. The patient evaluation included measuring Q max, residual urine volume and asking about their satisfaction. All patients were operated in the same center by the same surgeon. RESULTS The mean age of patients at surgery was 66.8 years (range 56-74 years). All patients presented preoperatively with obstructive micturition with mean Qmax 2.2 ml/s (SD ±1.9) and mean residual urine volume of 381 ±169 ml. After a mean follow-up of 46 months (SD ±22), the mean Qmax reached 16.4 ml/s (SD 3.3) while the mean residual urine volume was 18 ml (SD ±6). Recurrent sclerosis occurred in three patients (12.5%). A total of 94.1% of patients reported satisfactory micturition with significant improvement in the quality of life. CONCLUSIONS The Y-V plasty can provide a final option with a high success rate for patients with bladder neck sclerosis after failed endoscopic treatment.

Management of intractable bladder neck strictures following radical prostatectomy using the Memokath ®045 stent. J Robot Surg 2019; 14:621-625.

Abstract
The incidence of vesicourethral anastomotic stenosis (VUAS) post radical prostatectomy varies from 1 to 26%. Current treatment can be challenging and includes a variety of different procedures. These range from endoscopic dilations to bladder neck reconstruction to urinary diversion. We investigated a 2-stage endoscopic treatment, using the thermo-expandable Memokath®045 bladder neck stent to manage patients with VUAS post radical prostatectomy. We retrospectively reviewed 30 patients, between 2013 and 2017, who underwent a Memokath®045 stent insertion following failed primary treatment (dilation and clean intermittent catheterisation) for VUAS. The mean interval time between prostatectomy and Memokath®045 stent insertion was 13 months. The mean follow-up time was 3.6 years with all patients having a minimum of 12-month follow-up. All patients had two previous attempts at endoscopic dilatation with or without incision and a trial of clean intermittent catheterisation. During stage 1, the anastomotic stricture is dilated/incised to diameter of 30 Fr, the stricture length is measured, and a catheter is left in situ. One to 2 weeks later, post haemostasis and healing, an appropriately sized Memokath®045 stent is inserted. The stent is then removed 1-year post-op. Our series of patients had a median age of 62 (54–72). Most patients (26) had a robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) or salvage procedure. Results showed improvement in IPSS scores, IPSS quality of life scores, Qmax and PVR after the Memokath®045 stent was removed compared to pre-operation. With a minimum of 12 months post stent removal, 93% of patients were fully continent, whilst 7% of patients were socially continent. 2 (7%) patients had their stents removed and not replaced due to re-stricturing and stone formation. However, no urinary tract infections, stricture recurrence or urinary retention was observed in the rest of the cohort (93%). Overall, the Memokath®045 stent was successful in treating 93% of our patients with VUAS. Our series had minimal complications that were managed with conservative measures and in three patients’ re-operation was needed. In conclusion, the Memokath®045 stent is a minimally invasive technique with faster recovery time compared to other techniques such as bladder neck reconstruction or urinary diversion. Additionally, it provides superior patency results compared to other techniques such as bladder neck incision and injection of Mitomycin C. Therefore, this management option should be considered in the management of VUAS.

Abstract
Purpose: To evaluate safety, efficacy and functional outcomes after open vesicourethral re - anastomosis using different approaches based on previous urinary continence. Materials and Methods: Retrospective study of patients treated from 2002 to 2017 due to vesicourethral anastomosis stricture (VUAS) post radical prostatectomy (RP) who failed endoscopic treatment with at least 3 months of follow-up. Continent and incontinent patients post RP were assigned to abdominal (AA) or perineal approach (PA), respectively. Demographic and perioperative variables were registered. Follow-up was completed with clinical interview, uroflowmetry and cystoscopy every 4 months. Success was defined as asymptomatic patients with urethral lumen that allows a 14 French flexible cystoscope. Results: Twenty patients underwent open re-anastomosis for VUAS after RP between 2002 and 2017. Mean age was 63.7 years (standard deviation 1.4) and median follow-up was 10 months (range 3 – 112). The approach distribution was PA 10 patients (50%) and AA 10 patients (50%). The mean surgery time and median hospital time were 246.2 ± 35.8 minutes and 4 days (range 2 – 10), respectively with no differences between approaches. No significant complication rate was found. Three patients in the AA group had gait disorder with favorable evolution and no sequels. Estimated 2 years primary success rate was 80%. After primary procedures 89.9% remained stenosis - free. All PA patients remained incontinent, and 90% AA remained continent during follow-up. Conclusion: Open vesicourethral re - anastomosis treatment is a reasonable treatment option for recurrent VUAS after RP. All patients with perineal approach remained incontinent while incontinence rate in abdominal approach was rather low.

Abstract
Vesicourethral anastomotic stenosis is a relatively uncommon problem after radical prostatectomy, but it could become recurrent and difficult to treat. Risk factors are known, and they can help to decrease the incidence. When discussing the therapeutic plan, we must consider the stenosis risk, and also the urinary continence after the prostatectomy. Many treatment schedules are proposed, some of them with low available evidence, limited to case series with different number of patient and follow-up length, or reviews on the subject. Endoscopic options are the commonest, obtaining different success rates depending on the incision, resection or vaporization of the tissue. They could also benefit from the use of adjuvant local injections of drugs regulating tissue growth. Recurrent or obliterated cases could require surgical reconstruction using perineal, abdominal or combined approaches, or even suprapubic urinary diversions.

Abstract
Given its complex anatomy, injury to the posterior urethra may result in a number of reconstructive challenges. With the appropriate operative planning and experience, surgical repair can be very successful. This review discusses the applicable techniques for the perineal approach to posterior urethral stenosis, including bulbomembranous anastomosis for pelvic fracture urethral injury and repair of vesicourethral anastomotic stenosis (VUAS) following prostate surgery. The advanced techniques reviewed include an adaptation allowing a bulbar artery sparing approach to posterior urethroplasty and an intrasphincteric urethroplasty procedure which may allow continence preservation in patients with membranous urethral stenosis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To review a robotic approach to recalcitrant bladder neck obstruction and to assess success and incontinence rates. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients with a recalcitrant bladder neck contracture or vesicourethral anastomotic stenosis who underwent robotic bladder neck reconstruction (RBNR) were identified. We reviewed patient demographics, medical history, etiology, previous endoscopic management, cystoscopic and symptomatic outcomes, urinary continence, and complications. Stricture success was anatomic and functional based upon atraumatic passage of a 17 Fr flexible cystoscope or uroflowmetry rate >15 ml/s. Incontinence was defined as the use of >1 pad per day or procedures for incontinence. RESULTS Between 2015 and 2017, 12 patients were identified who met study criteria and underwent RBNR. Etiology of obstruction was endoscopic prostate procedure in 7 and radical prostatectomy in 5. The mean operative time was 216 minutes (range 120-390 minutes), with a mean estimated blood loss of 85 cc (range 5-200 cc). Median length of stay was 1 day (range 1-5 days). Three of 12 patients had recurrence of obstruction for a 75% success rate. Additionally, 82% of patients without preoperative incontinence were continent with a median follow-up of 13.5 months (range 5-30 months). There was 1 Clavien IIIb complication of osteitis pubis and pubovesical fistula that required vesicopubic fistula repair with pubic bone debridement. CONCLUSION RBNR is a viable surgical option with high patency rates and favorable continence outcomes. This is in contrast to perineal reconstruction, which has high incontinence rates. If future incontinence procedures are needed, outcomes may be improved given lack of previous perineal dissection.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW This article discusses the incidence, evaluation, and treatment of bladder outlet obstruction from urethral stricture, vesicourethral anastomotic stricture, and bladder neck contracture following primary and salvage treatment of prostate cancer. RECENT FINDINGS Rates of stenosis after prostate cancer treatment appear similar across all primary treatment modalities including radical prostatectomy, radiation therapy, cryoablation, and high-intensity focused ultrasound in contemporary series. Urethral dilation and urethrotomy continue to report moderate patency rates. Urethroplasty achieves high patency rates even for long strictures, but more extensive reconstruction increases the risk of postoperative urinary incontinence. Recent AUA guidelines on urethral strictures provide new recommendations for management of these patients. All treatment options for prostate cancer carry a risk for bladder outlet obstruction, and intervention is often necessary to relieve long-lasting morbidity. Careful preoperative evaluation should be completed to assess location and extent of the stricture in order to choose optimal therapy. Endoscopic treatments, open reconstruction, and urinary diversion all play a role in relief of stenosis depending on stricture length, location, characteristics, and patient comorbidities.

Abstract
Postprostatectomy vesicourethral anastomotic stenosis (VUAS) remains a challenging problem for both patient and urologist. Improved surgical techniques and perioperative identification and treatment of risk factors has led to a decline over the last several decades. High-level evidence to guide management is lacking, primarily relying on small retrospective studies and expert opinion. Endourologic therapies, including dilation and transurethral incision or resection with or without adjunct injection of scar modulators is considered first-line management. Recalcitrant VUAS requires surgical reconstruction of the vesicourethral anastomosis, and in poor surgical candidates, a chronic indwelling catheter or urinary diversion may be the only option. This review provides an update in the diagnosis and management of postprostatectomy VUAS.

Abstract
Secondary bladder neck sclerosis represents one of the more frequent complications following endoscopic, open, and other forms of minimally invasive prostate surgery. Therapeutic decisions depend on the type of previous intervention (e.g., radical prostatectomy, TURP, HoLEP, radiotherapy, HIFU) and on associated complications (e.g., incontinence, fistula). Primary treatment in most cases represents an endoscopic bilateral incision. No specific advantages of any type of the applied energy (i.e., mono-/bipolar HF current, cold incision, holmium/thulium YAG laser) could be documented. Adjuvant measures such as injection of corticosteroids or mitomycin C have not been helpful in clinical routine. In case of first recurrence, a transurethral monopolar or bipolar resection can usually be performed. Recently, the ablation of the scared tissue using bipolar vaporization has been recommended providing slightly better long-term results. Thereafter, surgical reconstruction is strongly recommended using an open, laparoscopic, or robot-assisted approach. Depending on the extent of the bladder neck sclerosis and the underlying prostate surgery, a Y-V/T-plasty, urethral reanastomosis, or even a radical prostatectomy with new urethravesical anastomosis should be performed. Stent implantation should be reserved for patients who are not suitable for surgery. The final palliative measure is a cystectomy with urinary diversion or a (continent) cystostomy.

Abstract
PURPOSE The AMS800™ device, by far the most frequently implanted artificial urinary sphincter (AUS) worldwide, is considered to be the "gold-standard" when male incontinence surgical treatment is contemplated. Despite 40 years of experience, it is still a specialized procedure with a number of challenges. Here, we present the recommendations issued from the AUS Consensus Group, regarding indications, management, and follow-up AMS800™ implantation or revision. MATERIALS AND METHODS Under ICS auspices, an expert panel met on July 10, 2015 in Chicago, IL, USA in an attempt to reach a consensus on diverse issues related to the AMS800™ device. Participants were selected by the two co-chairs on the basis of their practice in a University hospital and their experience: number of implanted AUSs according to AMS (American Medical System Holdings Inc., Minnetonka, MN) records and/or major published articles. Topics listed were the result of a pre-meeting email brainstorming by all participants. The co-chairs distributed topics randomly to all participants, who then had to propose a statement on each topic for approval by the conference after a short evidence-based presentation, when possible. RESULTS A total of 25 urologists were invited to participate, 19 able to attend the conference. The present recommendations, based on the most recent and relevant data available in literature as well as expert opinions, successively address multiple specific and problematic issues associated with the AMS800™ trough a eight-chapter structure: pre-operative assessment, pre operative challenges, implantation technique, post-operative care, trouble-shooting, outcomes, special populations, and the future of AUSs. CONCLUSION These guidelines undoubtedly constitute a reference document, which will help urologists to carefully select patients and apply the most adapted management to implantation, follow-up and trouble-shooting of the AMS800™.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Posterior urethral stenoses and contractures are complications after treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), localised prostate cancer (PCa), and orthotopic neobladder formation, compromising prognosis and functional outcomes. OBJECTIVES To identify factors related to aetiology, prevention and treatment of non-traumatic posterior urethral stenosis and contractures. ACQUISITION OF EVIDENCE Review of the published evidence related to posterior urethral stenosis and contractures after PCa treatment, BPH therapies and orthotopic neobladder formation. PubMed database search with English and Spanish papers considered. Cohort studies, case series, prospective and retrospective studies and review papers were included. SYNTHESIS OF EVIDENCE Posterior urethral stenoses and contractures are common, leading to significant morbidity. A worsening on voiding quality should rise some concerns. Careful surgical and/or radiotherapic techniques prevent their development. Endoscopic therapies are the initial approach, with complex urethroplasties often required. Subsequent urinary incontinence, the most important sequelae, may need artificial sphincters. CONCLUSIONS Non-traumatic posterior urethral stenoses could be important complications, potentially compromising the outcomes of initial therapy. They could require complex surgeries leading to urinary incontinence.

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this Guideline is to provide a clinical framework for the diagnosis and treatment of male urethral stricture. MATERIALS AND METHODS A systematic review of the literature using the Pubmed, Embase, and Cochrane databases (search dates 1/1/1990 to 12/1/2015) was conducted to identify peer-reviewed publications relevant to the diagnosis and treatment of urethral stricture. The review yielded an evidence base of 250 articles after application of inclusion/exclusion criteria. These publications were used to create the Guideline statements. Evidence-based statements of Strong, Moderate, or Conditional Recommendation were developed based on benefits and risks/burdens to patients. Additional guidance is provided as Clinical Principles and Expert Opinion when insufficient evidence existed. RESULTS The Panel identified the most common scenarios seen in clinical practice related to the treatment of urethral strictures. Guideline statements were developed to aid the clinician in optimal evaluation, treatment, and follow-up of patients presenting with urethral strictures. CONCLUSIONS Successful treatment of male urethral stricture requires selection of the appropriate endoscopic or surgical procedure based on anatomic location, length of stricture, and prior interventions. Routine use of imaging to assess stricture characteristics will be required to apply evidence based recommendations, which must be applied with consideration of patient preferences and personal goals. As scientific knowledge relevant to urethral stricture evolves and improves, the strategies presented here will be amended to remain consistent with the highest standards of clinical care.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Vesicourethral anastomotic stricture following prostatectomy is uncommon but represents a challenge for reconstructive surgery and has a significant impact on quality of life. The aim of this study was to relate our experience in managing vesicourethral anastomotic strictures and present the treatment algorithm used in our institution. PATIENTS AND METHODS We performed a descriptive, retrospective study in which we assessed the medical records of 45 patients with a diagnosis of vesicourethral anastomotic stricture following radical prostatectomy. The patients were treated in the same healthcare centre between January 2002 and March 2015. Six patients were excluded for meeting the exclusion criteria. The stricture was assessed using cystoscopy and urethrocystography. The patients with patent urethral lumens were initially treated with minimally invasive procedures. Open surgery was indicated for the presence of urethral lumen obliteration or when faced with failure of endoscopic treatment. Urinary continence following the prostatectomy was determinant in selecting the surgical approach (abdominal or perineal). RESULTS Thirty-nine patients treated for vesicourethral anastomotic stricture were recorded. The mean age was 64.4 years, and the mean follow-up was 40.3 months. Thirty-three patients were initially treated endoscopically. Seventy-five percent progressed free of restenosis following 1 to 4 procedures. Twelve patients underwent open surgery, 6 initially due to obliterative stricture and 6 after endoscopic failure. All patients progressed favourable after a mean follow-up of 29.7 months. CONCLUSIONS Endoscopic surgery is the initial treatment option for patients with vesicourethral anastomotic strictures with patent urethral lumens. Open reanastomosis is warranted when faced with recalcitrant or initially obliterative strictures and provides good results.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To describe a modified surgical technique for treatment of highly recurrent bladder neck contracture (BNC) after transurethral surgery for benign hyperplasia and to evaluate success rate and patient satisfaction of this novel technique. METHODS Ten patients with highly recurrent BNC and multiple prior attempts of endoscopic treatment underwent the T-plasty. Perioperative complications were recorded and classified according to the Clavien classification. Patient reported functional outcomes were retrospectively analysed using a standardized questionnaire assessing recurrence of stenosis, incontinence, satisfaction and changes in quality of life (QoL). The questionnaires included validated IPSS and SF-8-health survey items. RESULTS Mean age at the time of surgery was 69.2 years (range 61-79), and the mean follow-up was 26 months (range 3-46). No complications grade 3 or higher according to the Clavien classification occurred. Success rate was 100 %. No de novo stress incontinence occurred. Urinary stream was described as very strong to moderate by 80 % of the patients, mean post-operative IPSS-score was 11.3 (range 4-29), and mean post-operative IPSS-QoL was 2.4 (range 1-5). Patients satisfaction was very high or high in 90 %, and QoL improved in 90 %. The SF-8-health survey showed values comparable to the reference population. CONCLUSION The T-plasty represents a safe and valuable option in treating highly recurrent BNC after surgery for benign hyperplasia. It offers multiple advantages compared to other techniques such as a single-staged approach and the opportunity for reconstruction of a reliable wide bladder neck by usage of two well-vascularized flaps. Success rate, low rate of complications and preservation of continence are highly encouraging.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To summarize the cause and diagnostic and treatment concerns for bladder neck contractures (BNCs) in the prostate cancer survivor. RECENT FINDINGS BNC rates have decreased significantly in the last 2 decades, likely because of improvement in the surgical technique and increased utilization of laparoscopic and robotic surgery, which may allow better visualization of the vesicourethral anastomosis. Despite these improvements, risk factors such as smoking and coronary artery disease contribute to BNC development. Furthermore, although recent reports have questioned the classical tenets of anastomotic technique such as water-tight anastomoses, there is no evidence that these principles contribute to the risk of BNC development and should continue to be observed. The results of minimally invasive procedures such as urethral dilation and transurethral incision of the bladder neck may be improved with the use of injectable agents. SUMMARY There is little consensus regarding BNC therapy. Although several risk factors contributing to BNC development have been identified, strategies to reduce the risk are unclear. A number of therapeutic options are available, however. In the event of BNC development, treatment should be structured in a hierarchical fashion which minimizes the risk of urinary incontinence.

Abstract
The development of urethral stricture (US) or bladder neck contracture is a relatively uncommon but well described condition observed primarily in men. Despite familiarity with US disease, management remains challenging for urologists. Risk factors for the development of USs or bladder neck contracture include primary treatment modality, tobacco smoking, coronary artery disease and poorly controlled diabetes mellitus. Numerous treatment options exist for this condition that vary in procedural complexity, including intermittent self catheterization (CIC), serial urethral dilation, endoscopic techniques and open reconstructive repairs. Repetitive procedures for this condition may carry increased failure rates and morbidities. For the treatment of refractory or recalcitrant bladder neck contracture, newer intralesional anti-proliferative, anti-scar agents have been used in combination with transurethral bladder neck incisions to augment outcome and long-term effect. The primary focus of this systematic review of the published literature is to streamline and summarize various and newer therapeutic modalities available to manage patients with US or bladder neck contracture.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION We evaluated the success rate of continent vesicostomy using an ileal segment with seroserosally embedded, tapered ileum for bladder augmentation with continent stoma following bladder neck closure (BNC) for severely damaged bladders or persistent urinary incontinence. MATERIAL AND METHODS A total of 15 patients were treated for persistent urinary incontinence or non-reconstructible bladder outlet between 2003 and 2012. Underlying diagnosis included post-prostatectomy incontinence (n = 5), recurrent bladder neck stenosis (n = 5), neurogenic bladder (n = 3), urethral tumor recurrence following orthotopic neobladder (n = 1) and post-TVT and colposuspension incontinence (n = 1). All patients underwent open BNC, omental interposition and continent vesicoileostomy. The continent outlet was placed in the lower abdomen using a circumferential subcutaneous and skin plasty to avoid retraction. Data collected included age, underlying diagnosis, stoma site, time to complications and need for subsequent surgical revisions. All patients received a standardized questionnaire at the time of data acquisition and were personally interviewed. RESULTS Median follow-up was 24 months (range: 2-111). Primary BNC was successful in all patients and primary continence rate was 86.7%. Two patients (13.3%) suffered from failure of the continence mechanism, caused by stoma stenosis at skin level and insufficiency of the bladder augmentation and stoma due to local infection. One additional patient developed a mild stomal incontinence without need for further reconstruction. Regardless of the number of revisions, at the last follow-up 93.3% of patients had a functional channel. All complications occurred within the first postoperative year. CONCLUSIONS This technique is an effective last resort treatment for patients with non-reconstructible bladder outlet.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To assess fistula recurrence rate and health-related quality of life (HRQL) after repair, as well as the impact on continence and erection in patients with recto-anastomotic fistula after radical prostatectomy (RP). In recent publications, the numbers of cases of recto-urinary fistulae after RP are relatively small. Success rates at fistula closure are good; however, data about functional outcomes and HRQL are more restricted. PATIENTS AND METHODS A retrospective study of patients treated for recto-urethral fistulae after RP between 1993 and 2008. All 17 patients were assessed for fistula recurrence in 2007 and received a standardised non-validated questionnaire to assess HRQL in 2011; furthermore, a patient's chart review was performed. SURGICAL TECHNIQUE fistula closure was abdominal in 10 patients, perineal in five and combined abdominal and perineal in two, some with tissue interposition. RESULTS In 2007, follow-up was available for 14 patients, one was deceased and two were lost to follow-up. The mean follow-up was 73.3 months and the mean patient age was 63 years. In two of the 17 patients, rectal injury during the initial surgery was reported; another three had undergone adjuvant radiation therapy (18%). In 2011, another two patients were deceased; the mean (range) follow-up was 99.5 (44-184) months. There was a great improvement in HRQL as compared with before surgery in seven of the 12 evaluable patients, a slight improvement in one and no change in three. In all, eight of the 12 patients were very satisfied with the surgery and four were satisfied. CONCLUSION Perineal or abdominal fistula repair yields excellent success rates and high patient satisfaction. However, urinary incontinence can be found in some patients postoperatively, requiring further treatment.
