Simple aspiration technique to address voiding dysfunction associated with transurethral injection of dextranomer/hyaluronic acid copolymer.

摘要

Dextranomer/hyaluronic acid copolymer (Zuidex) is currently under Food and Drug Administration investigation for use as a transurethral bulking agent to treat female stress urinary incontinence secondary to intrinsic sphincter deficiency. Urethral obstruction is a recognized complication of bulking agents. We describe an aspiration method to address iatrogenic voiding dysfunction resulting from this therapy.
