Video Summary

In this video, titled "Urethralysis for a Synthetic Periurethral Bulking Agent Collection," presented by the University of Illinois Department of Urology, a case is discussed involving a 63-year-old female patient with a history of stress incontinence. After failed sling placement and durosphere injection, the patient experienced bladder spasms and pain. Imaging revealed anatomical alterations and a spherical periurethral collection. Surgical procedures including urethralysis, excision of mesh segments, and removal of the collection were performed. The bladder neck and proximal urethra were then placated using sutures and interseed mesh, and the wound was closed. The patient experienced improved symptoms, with pain relief and resolution of incontinence.
