What this trial studies

This observational study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the Victo adjustable artificial sphincter in male patients suffering from urinary incontinence following prostate surgery. Participants will undergo a standard diagnostic work-up before the device is implanted, and they will have regular follow-up visits at 3 months and annually thereafter. The study will assess changes in urinary incontinence through various tests and questionnaires, allowing for adjustments to the device as needed. Statistical analyses will be performed to determine the significance of the results.
